Yes they will be happy because they can sleep in the plants and on the gravel.But the fish tank should be large for the fish so it has more room.I would get a large fish tank at petco they are a good price and work GREAT.
Betta fish can be kept in either a tank or a bowl.
Male betta fish can be housed in both bowls and aquarium. In order to thrive though they need the proper lighting and filtration.
Yes they just touch the Betta fish to paralyze it and then eat.
Betta Fish do fight that is why they need to be put in separate bowls or else they will kill each other.
No, you need a 10 gallon aquarium. Bettas should not be kept in bowls at all. 2.5 gallons is the minimum.
yes
Betta fish can be comfortable in tanks large or small. Large tanks can provide space for your betta, while small tanks keep your betta from being stressed. Whichever kind of tank works for you best is just fine!
Betta fish need filtered and oxygenated tanks just like other freshwater fish. Pet stores that tell you that Betta fish don't need much room or filtered tanks are either ill-informed or just plain unethical. Too much current flow isn't healthy since Bettas like slow moving water. If you are putting a plant inside a tank with your Betta (and not keeping the Betta in a vase with a plant growing out of the top and the roots growing into the Betta's space), any freshwater fish-friendly plant is good. Just make sure that it is soft so it doesn't damage the Betta's delicate and beautiful fins. Don't put a Betta in a vase with or without a plant growing above it. Also, don't keep them in tight containers or small cups. This practice is cruel and inhumane!
Bettas have evolved to be able to survive in small amounts of water but they do not necessarilly do well under those conditions. They are basically the same as all fish and need the same basic conditions. 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water (a Betta is a 3 inch fish) Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Bettas are tropical and also need to be kept at around 78F.
Check this link and I . Basically, it just looks like a load of spit floating in the water (it is, but betta spit.) Some bettas are mouthbrooders, meaning they incubate their eggs in their mouths, like the popular Betta Pugnax.Happy Fishkeeping!I found this link very helpful: http://www.bettatalk.com/how_bettas_spawn.htmAnswer-It is a whole bunch of bubbles at the top of the water. My Betta made a huge bubble nest.

This is a BIG NO NO!! Bettas need at least 2.5 gallons of water to themselves, and if you put a male and a female together, it will most likely result with you have two dead bettas. Keep your boy and girl in separate 2.5 gallon heated tanks.
well you first need at least a one gallon fish bowl and fish gravel and plants and stuff for them to hide in. fish food, and give them every once in a wile betta fish treats for fat.
