You mgith want to try 2 female swords, I wouldn't go over that in such a little tank. Maybe you could get a bigger one, and sell the old (Or stock it)- My 10 gall was about $15 more than a 5, encluding all setup costs. Bettas go well swords, by the way. (Mine does, you might have problems with a mroe agressive fish, mine barely reacts to a mirror)
