Bettas do not necessarily need an air pump, as they have a labyrinth organ that allows them to breathe air at the water's surface.

Can betas and Fire-bellied Toad live together?
No. Bettas need an aquarium (All water). Toads need a vivarium (water and land). Also toads are eaters of fish so I doubt your Betta would last very long
