Are clown killifish compatible with bettas?

I have a 2.5 gallon tank that is lightly planted. It has wisteria, a couple marimo balls, several bamboo, soon to be pellia, and a piece of driftwood. Right now there is a crowntail betta in the tank. Could I add 2 clown killifish or will they not get along with the betta?

No, they are too tiny; I wouldn't risk it. P. annulatus are also very timid fish. They will jump out of the tank/against the cover every time the betta freaks them out.
