2 male bettas
They fight at first, but once dominance is established they get along if you provide them with enough space. I would allow 10 gallons for each betta. Longer tank is better than a tall tank. Provide plants, caves, and anything else to provide cover for the weaker one to retreat. By breaking their line of sight with each other, they tend to stay seperated. Now when one gets close to the other, they flare their gills and stare at each other, but the weaker one backs down and is chased for a couple of minutes at most. Once and awhile, they do fight to re-establish order of dominance. To keep females in their, prevent bubble nests. My power filter return flow keeps the surface moving and no nests forms. Other variety of fish like danios and platies help also. No fin nippers though. Bettas are great in a community tank,
