They can be kept safely with algae eaters, guppies or corydorus catfish. You can also keep two females in a big tank with lots of hiding places. It isn't a good idea to keep a male and a female together unless they are breeding. If you want to keep two bettas in a small tank use a plastic divider to keep them away from each other but, they may hurt themselves bumping against it so I do not recommend this.
Just remember Bettas are slow moving, smallish, timid fish. There are many fish that will be OK with them. Just remember not to put other male Bettas in there if you have a male 'cos one will kill the other. It's also adviseable to avoid fin nippers like barbs that may pick at its flowing fins. Also avoid aggressive fish that will get too big and eat it.
yes, but not with eachother as they will fight and bright coloured fish may be attacked or chased.
Piranha :D
Beta fish are known to be compatible with most other types of fish. They seem to only have a problem with their ownspecies.

Can a tadpole live with a bata?
I wouldn't risk it. betas live alone, and most betas will kill company. buy a separate fish bowl, appropriate for the tadpole when it is older, and larger. :)
