I think youre talking about corydoras. most will fit in a 10 gallon, but need a school. no "scavenger sharks" will fit in a 10 gallon.
The betta will probably kill the ghost shrimp. I had a betta and 10 ghost shrimp in a 10 gallon tank. The shrimp population dwindled out over a couple weeks and I found him eating them. theyre just a quarter though.

Thanks, I was thinking about ghostshrimp as well. I can always remove my betta to a bowl. Small price to pay, I guess. Are there any significant known problems with ghost shrimp -i.e escaping (like my red claw) or diseases - or are they relativly safe for a small freshwater aquarium. Also, can they live in brackish.. which water do they prefer?
