Betta - My bet would be on the turtle. Turtles will try and eat anything. The flowing fins and tail would be nibbles on until the fish could not swim as well. It would be an expensive meal.

lol thats a trick question

it depends on how mean the betta is. how many tattoos it got at the pet store and how long did it have that eye patch

haha, id say turtle. this seems like a great poll starter lol.

what would a betta do to a turtle?? swim around all angry like?

The betta would probably die from stress relating to the large size of the tank and the constant presence of the turtle. That is, if the turtle doesn't eat him first.
