Marine bettas, what do you think of them any experience

I like them a lot. It has been a decade since my last. Great as long as they can't swallow their tank mates. Good with other big and calm species. Had a friend with a predator reef, lionfish, betta, nice triggers, harlequin tusk, and a snowflake and they all got along great.

They are very peaceful fish as long as, mentioned above, nothing can fit in their mouth. Would do fine with any fish that doesnt fit that criteria, or isn't agressive towards the betta. Also very hardy once acclimated. Watching them hunt is very entertaining.
