what can I do

I have a 10 gallon tank with all the things needed including heater. I was thinking: 3 guppies, 2 platys and 2 mollies, is my tank big enough? I have another 10 gallon tank, with 2 male Betta's (separated in different containers) and 1 female (separated). 1 of my blue male Betta's keeps bothering the other red male by flaring his fins and gills, but the red male doesn't do anything. The blue betta also bothers the female, she occasionally flares at him as well. Are the Betta's okay together but separated? ive had them like that for 2 months. Another question about the other 10 gallon: I have a 30 gallon filter with a smaller filter and an air pump. is this too much current for the livebearers i want? thanks for your time :D
 
1. nollies belong in 20+ gallon tanks so no to them but 5 male guppies and 5 male platies should do well(you have no room to breed so don't even try unless you upgrade to a 30 gallon) also livebearers like current so the filter is fine
2. You are stressing the bettas out by keeping them like that because they will do no matter what to get to each other and kill they should have a seperate 3 gallon tank for each betta and as for the female she can go in the communtity tank with the platies and guppies
3. Have fun
