Make sure to keep the fish in dechlorinated water. If your tap water contains chlorine or a similar chemical, add some chlorine remover to any water you plan on putting the fish in. Other than feeding the fish a small amount of food every day and periodically cleaning the container to remove waste debris, that is about it. Bettas are lungfish and are capable of drawing oxygen directly from the air. Because of this ability, bettas thrive in small non-aerated containers that would kill gill-breathing fish.
