Does anyone keep a betta with danios?

I have noticed danios can be quite aggressive towards each other sometimes
and tend to chase each other about. I know their normal behaviour is to
keep busy and move a lot, but I wondered how they would fare with a fighter.

I keep a betta with tetras currently and there is no problem between them.
I would love to get another betta for the other tank which houses 6 danios.
Of course, I felt it sensible to ask first because I don't want to get one
and find out it's not a good idea to put them together the hard way!

Many thanks.

Netmax had the coolest story of putting bettas in a store tank full of
zebra danios. Maybe you can find it on Google's archives. Apparantly
some bettas do fine with danios but many others are very uncomfortable
with the activity.

Maybe you could see if your betta that's with the tetras is comfortable
with danios. If he is, then getting another betta to go in with the
tetras is a much more sure thing.
