I know but bettas need alot of space compared to other fish. That little spot of air is not enough IMO and research.Fluval Edge's do have an open air space, though. You can't see it because there is a cover, buy the cover is a mesh top that fits over the square top and allows free air to circulate.

stone1269 said:Do they have solid black bettas? Or solid white?
Thats a good idea. that way if he is fine with the limited space you dont ruin the asthetics of the tank! I wanna see tank pics when he is in though....Thanks for the tip. I'll have to monitor him carefully then. If he seems distressed, I'll lower the water level to provide more open air space.

Don't get anything that has a flowy tail (molly/goldfish/guppy) or anything that has fins that dangle off of them(angel fish). The betta will nip the fins off or in my case I had an angel kill a betta once, before I knew better.
