Normally putting bettas together is not recommended. I do keep 5 females together in a 10 gallon tank but they are spawn siblings and have never been seperated. Even then there is still sibling rivalry. Bettas are lazy, slow moving, inactive creatures by nature.............untill there is competition. If you do try it, I would love to hear your results. If they make it 1 week without much damage (there most likely will be some), then it should work.

Kinda off the subject, do you have any pics? That is one betta I want to breed but cant get any good ones without paying an arm and leg.

All species are fairly agressive. Imbellis and brederi tend to be a little more docile, IME as well as pugnax have been known to school. Finding a betta that gets along with shrimp is hit and miss. It really depends on the particular betta (not the species). 90% of all my bettas get along with shrimp.
