I have a female betta tank, one of them got sick and I treated her in the hospital tank. I just recently put her back in with the other 3 and they are beating her up pretty bad -_- So I'd like to make sure she would be safe with my other fish. Would she be ok with tetras and danios? Thanks for any help. :)
 
Tetras are fin nippers, and I'm not too sure about the danios.

Though IME, females are a hell of a lot quicker than the males, and can easily outswim a nippy fish.
You could try it, but be careful and be prepared to separate the female into her own tank/bowl.
 
One option if you want to put her back with the other female Bettas is to take them all out and rearrange the decor in the tank. Then put the battered female in the tank first so it's HER territory, and they're entering it on her terms. That tends to help a lot. Even just rearranging the decor works wonders on minimizing female aggression and territory disagreements.
