Yes. Bettas, like most other fish, like to swim around. A single betta needs a 6-10 gallon tank with a heater and filter for optimum health. Plants and caves make it more interesting for him. A container without a filter and heataer requires constant water changes and has fluctuating temperatures, both of which are very stressful for the betta and thus shorten his life.� + � + Just as a person could be kept alive in a large closet, a betta can "live" in a small container, but it isn't fair to judge the space requirements by whether or not they can survive. They actually will live longer, more content lives with more room.

If you betta is in a small tank, placing it in a location that has a warm ambient room temperature should be enough to keep it to betta preferred warmth.
