Is my Betta tank alright?

[Alexwm125]

I got this tank from a friend. I calculated it to 3g. It's like those little cheapo ones from pet smart but a little deeper no idea where he got it, anyway. Is this alright for my Betta? He's been in there for a few months.

2x 75% water change weekly.

The reason I am wondering is there is a lot of conflicting info about there on Betta tank size. People say 1g (not happening) people say 10g. I just don't know.

He has seemed happy the whole time and by happy I mean very active, feeding well, good fins. So again is this ok?

Most definitely that is a great tank for a Betta you may want to consider a small filter and heater tho

For betta tank sizes, there are a lot of conflicting ideas about it. Personally, I don't choose to keep mine in under 2.5g. But, some people do. No matter what you decide, the best thing is to keep the water parameters in check. Smaller containers do mean more water changes. I often suggest larger tank because the reality of the situation is that many people will skimp on water changes and a bigger tank gives you more leeway. That said, you are already doing large, frequent water changes. I am sure your betta will be just fine in there.

Soley my opinion, but I personally wouldn't feel right about putting a betta in anyting under 10 gallons, and never have. If I were a betta, I'd be awfully bored in a 2 or 3 gallon tank.
