Very nice set up!

55 gallon elephant nose tank
16 gallon Giant African shrimp tank

Just be aware when buying fake plants for Bettas, check the edges. Bettas can injure themselves on some plastic plants AND decor.

I recommend Silk plants or real.

You tank does look nice. Just offering tips going forward. Java Fern will grow under almost any light. And does not need to be planted. You can tie it or glue it to rocks or decor

Thanks for the tip. One of my plants is silk; the others are pretty smooth but I'll definitely look into Java fern. (I would love to have a huge planted tank but can't b/c I'm renting.)

Java Fern can also just be left floating.

So, my Betta hated the new tank- too strong of a current (Fluval U2.) I moved him to a new 2.5 gallon instead. I now have 5 White Clouds in the 5.5 gallon, and am trying to grow water sprite in both tanks.

Yep, adjustable filters are important or make a DIY baffle to soften the outflow.
