Some types of plants do well with Bettas and other fish and can mutually benefit both the fish and the plant. Make sure the plants are healthy and free of parasites and are nontoxic for the fish, for the fish will generally nibble on the vegetation. Provide adequate lighting for the type of plant you choose (different plants have different lighting requirements) and also remember some plants may need additional supplements added to the water to stay healthy, such as iron, etc.

Which plants are best used with betta fish?
You can use nearly any aquatic plant you can think of with a betta. Your selection will be more limited by the lighting you have as opposed to plants that will be compatible with a betta. If you're new to plants in a tank I would recommend java fern and/or java moss. Both will grow well under low light conditions and are very easy to care for.
