Rainbow sharks are hit/miss on the nippy factor. If the tank was larger, with plants, I'd say the betta would be pretty safe from him, as long as he didn't spend too much time near the bottom. If anything, grab a shortfin variety, like a king betta, or indo fighter/roundtail. Adult rainbow sharks can't swallow them, but in a small tank, there's just not enough space for the betta to stay out of his way.
