The snail unless you bought it get cory catfish mystery snails and adf.
bettas are interesting fish but, dont put them together, they tend to be aggressive towards other fish and other betta fish. ( I learned this the hard way when i put two bettas together in a tank and one ate the other!)

I would not put any other fish in the tank with Betta’s.bettas should be kept alone or a male and female only.
