No. if so the betta will kill the other fish, even the other fish being a betta. Not true... Goldfish will nibble on their lovely fins but I've seen Beta's get along ok with Cories, also little Neon Tetras. By the way, female bettas can only be together to mate, even after mating the male may kill the female. While bettas can live in harmony with other fish, and be fine in a five gallon fish bowl by themselves, the other fish need to be in a tank with filters and all that other stuff. Answer The recommended size of tank for a Betta is 10 Gallons (nominal). So the answer to your question is no. Your 5 gallon (nominal) tank would be actually holding about 4 gallons of water when it is filled to within 1 inch of the top. Add any more fish and you would be overloading the tank.
Well they might

What Can kill a betta fish other than a betta fish?
Well, if you love your Betta fish, then it should live by itself.

How much does it take for a betta to accept another fish?
Bettas are dumb as rocks. If you put another betta, any other anabantid like a gourami, or any long-finned fish in with a betta, the betta will fight it because he will think it's another betta. If you put a short-finned fish in with your betta, they'll live together peacefully.

What fish can live with betta?
Even though petstores and people say that bettas cant be with other fish or they will fight to the death, they are wrong. The best fish to put them with is one that looks nothing like a girl betta or a boy, one that swims fast , ones that are bigger than the betta, or ones that are not agressive. But girl bettas can live together or with any other fish that is nonaggressive.(Males cannot be together!) So dont put your betta fish alone in a bowl, put it in an aquarium so it can live a long happy life with other fish. There is probaly a 30% out of 100% that they can live with any nonaggressive fish. (But if you see any aggressive behavior with the betta take him out!)

no because the male and femalebetas are the type of fish that live alone. therefor since their opposite sex then there is a chance of them being OK with each other, so if there is another fish with them then they will attack it and eventually killing each other.
