A six month old betta is already full grown and able to breed. As long as they're not fancy guppies with long bright fins they may be okay, some bettas are just more aggressive than others.

In most cases, it is not recommended to keep guppies with female bettas. Female bettas can be quite territorial and may perceive the guppies as intruders.

Will a betta fish kill a guppy fish?
Bettas have a lot more personality than guppies, and require less space (5 gallon+). However, I have had boredom and tail biting issues with mine, so I had to upgrade to a 10 gallon tank with pygmy cories to stop him being bored. This is a risky move as many bettas are aggressive and won't accept tank mates. Guppies require 10 gallon+ tanks, and are stunning creatures. However, they are less intelligent and have less personality than bettas. Both fish require a heated and filtered tank, and no matter what you decide it is of upmost importance that you do a fishless cycle to create a healthy bacterial colony before you add any fish. Without doing this your fish will be in pain from ammonia and nitrite spikes and may die.
