You will need a 24"x12"x12" tank with a heater/thermostat set at 80F, a thermometer, an air driven box/corner filter and an air pump to drive it. A glass cover for the tank (helps protect the nest) and a light over the tank. Floating plants are usefull for the male to use in his bubble nest construction. A few rocks making hidey holes and other rooted water plants in clumps are also usefull for the female to hide in when she needs to. Then I guess you will need a male and female Betta splendens both in breeding condition. I usually add the female to the males tank rather than vice-versa.
