oh cool....max size 1.2"Corydoras pygmaeus but I think there are 3-4species that are very similar that are traded as Pygmy Corydoras.

LOL "typical male 0.75""....THAT's tiny
Yeah, I had a planted six gallon a while back with a small school and Neocaridinia shrimp. The corys seem to school/shoal quite a bit.
If the lfs has pygmies ill get 4 or so. The betta is coming home today so here we go!
Also the tank has uber filtration (sponge,matrix and biowheel) so 5 fish will be safe

if not ask if they can order them for you, otherwise Pandas and Greens will suit just fine
your choice. like I said....I have 3 doing well, a "school" is technically classified as 6 or more.
My betta has now been in the tank for 2 hours and seems to be doing fine.
it is a black bodied veilteil with his top fins blue and black and the bottom a more light brown.
he ate a small amount of flake and seems to be doing well

lol you cruel "no" voters, tank is ideal for a first tropical; all comes down to the stock 
I wouldn't do cories in with the betta, I'd opt for maybe some shrimp in there to eat scraps etc; even then he might decide to munch them, unless you get a moss clump to allow breeding of shrimplets
