there willy and orca in my siggy,they look nothing like a betta do they??

[catnapper]

not really. How big are your goldfish? You need two gallons of water per inch of goldfish. If they are small, like only an inch long, then you have room. but remember goldfish will grow up to 10" -- you'lll need to get a new tank by the time they are 5" long.

Don't forget to take into account the space your gravel and pants take up.

this is the tank and how it looks right now

Yeah I new they could get up to 10 inches and they need 2 gallons each and so I think there would be enogh room

[Flatcoatluver]

umm here is a full picture of them, without it croped off
this was in there old tank, too small for both of them

ok I am trying to think of my betta's personality,
Jedi is a slow easy going guy, who takes his time and doesn't go to food very fast

rudy flares at everything and eats really fast
would rudy be a problem with them?

They should get along fine but catnapper is right about needing extra tank space later. Also, make sure your betta gets enough to eat, goldfish are hogs! Sometimes they gobbled things up faster than my betta could get to the food because he was always looking and stalking the food before he'd strike so I set up a little plastic "cage" part I could block off with a removable side to help make sure he ate enough. But if you see that he is being able to get to the food fast enough before they eat it all it should be fine.

Well if they have long fins, that MIGHT cause problems. But as far as coloration goes, no the betta will not mistake them as another male betta.

Some fish though like neon tetras don't do well though with bettas because they think they are other bettas and will attack them
