    Is this OK for a betta?

    I REALLY want to get a betta and have been searching for an appropriate tank for a betta. I saw this and liked it. I was wondering if it is the right size and if the filter is okay for a betta. Here is the tank. Thanks

    ps: I'll be getting my betta from Petsmart because the last time I went, I saw this beautiful betta and really wanted to buy/rescue it.

    It looks like a nice size, but I hear that filters bother bettas. :\ I'm not sure how strong that filter is, so I don't know if that one would actually bother one.

    Ideally you want a 2.5 or more gallon tank, but they will do fine in a tank like that.

    Sometimes water disturbance can stress them out, so a filter can do more harm than good. BUT some do good with one, some don't.

    I also saw these but they also have a filter. But I'm sure they will have a wider selection than what they have featured on the website. I also wanted to add that I have $40 to spend so anything around $35 or under is what I can afford.

    Well actually they usually have a bigger selection online than they do in-store. At least that's how it was when I worked at PetCo

    I actually really like that tank minus the filter, I almost bought it. It's really cute and I think it comes in 2.5 gallon sizes.
