I need an opinion

I have a 10 gallon betta tank. 1 male and three females.
Only 1 aggresive female and she has been calm lately.
1 Chinese Algae Eater
2 Kuhli Loach
1 ram horn snail (Betta's eat baby snails, yum)

The tank is doing amazing I know I shouldn't play around with a good thing. But I got the itch...

Can I, should I...
add another female Betta, or
some other interesting compatible fish?

Thanks for looking,
JH

I definately wouldnt add any more bettas- its surprising to me you have nt had any problems.
Id get rid of the chinese algea eater- they get 12 in long, and stop eating algea, and start eating fishes slime coats, eyeballs, etc.... trade it in for a couple more khulis if anything and call it done.

If it works dont touch it (tho, the CAE could go i think) cause that pecking order business is tricky stuff!

How long have you had these bettas in a tank together, are they all from the same spawn?
I agree get rid of the CAE before it's too late.
