I was just wondering if you guys knew of a good all in one package deal tank for bettas? I'm looking for around 5 gallons. I also wanted to put the live plant in there, what plants do you guys recommend? Also heater information would be great!

Thanks!

for a betta most filter in a tank that size would need a baffle,(split a pop bottle and put on lip of HOB waterfall) Id do a sponge with a way to regulater air, for plants I am lazy a piece or 2 of anbus to a driftwood maybe bamboo if it is tall enough to reach out of tank, heater 50w or a 100, set low, I had 10 bettas all with there own 5.5 like this. very nice, started dividing them in 20 longs but i still keep a betta in a 5.5 planted for the athstetic of it
 
Do shrimps work with bettas? Or do other fishes work too? I want to make a planted tank

Hit or miss. My betta is in a ten gallon and does not tolerate tankmates

As for kits. There is plenty to choose from.

Which kit do you guys think is the most bang for your buck? I like how clean the fluval spec v looks, but it's kinda pricey.

it depends on the betta. for him i use an Aqua One 22 litre aquarium kit. My betta currently lives with a Pakistani loach(getting more, they are growouts) a rabbit snail, a stranded neon tetra that was left from a sick diseased shoal, a mail sailfin balloon molly, a bristlenose plec( grow out) and a pair of glasscats( to be moved and the shoal to be increased). However my betta killed: one platy, two female balloon mollies, two dwarf African frogs, a couple neon tetras, and three amano shrimp.

Hmmmm good info everyone. I guess it just depends on the fish's temperament
