Yes, these would be compatible, but the corys should be in a group of 3 or more - they're social fish and do best in the company of others of their type. Barbs should also be kept in schools to prevent them from nipping fins of others in their tank, which they tend to do if they don't have an adequate sized school. I would suggest cherry barbs if you don't already have a species in mind - these are one of the smaller and more peaceful of the barbs. Given the number of fish that you should keep for schooling, I would suggest that you have at least a 10 gallon tank for them.

I actually have a 23 gal with this: a million x Betta 10 x Harlequin Rasboras 4 x Peppered Corys 4 x Oto Catfish some Snails. The Betta does not even provide a hoot with regard to the fish in the tank. i've got additionally had achievement conserving Bettas with Blackskirt Tetras, Neon Tetras, and Albino Corys. Bettas attack: - different Bettas. - A fish that resembles a Betta. - A fish that would desire to alter right into a meal (he thinks of it as nutrition). in case you are able to overcome those situations, you will probable have achievement. In all honesty, in an area tank the fish you would be able to desire to fret maximum approximately is the Betta. that is by myself, and its a sluggish swimming fish. it may no longer particularly chase training fish. whether it tried some thing humorous the fish can purely outswim him. yet while different fish in the tank choose to attack him, he's the slowest swimming, least puzzling aim. Bettas get bullied greater advantageous than they bully.

yep, they sure can, they are all peaceful, but make sure that the tank is at least 7-8 gallons. also be careful with the snail, they will have babies, even though there is only 1

I agree with the above although if you get a small snail you should not have any babies for a while, what you need to avoid it crabs and turtles.
