A few things I would change though, to improve the setup and make this 3.5g tank work out for the betta... (PLEASE READ and bear with me, I know it's long but you'll learn a lot I promise!)
Other things you'll definitely need to have, and/or do:
Also PLEASE watch out with the overfeeding, your betta in this video clip looks super bloated (his little tiny belly looks about ready to burst, he's so stuffed). You need to fast him for 3-4 days until his belly looks almost flat again, then you can try giving him some daphnia as a mild laxative to help him clear out any further blockage (not to mention a heater to warm the water to a stable 78-80F will help his metabolism so he can process the food properly).
Here's a reference of photos to help you determine how much food his little belly needs: https://i.imgur.com/4RR2LZ9.jpg (feed slowly 1 piece at a time, watch his belly, and aim not to let it get too far past the 2nd from the top picture).
Please read these articles to learn more how to give your boi the best quality of life: https://www.reddit.com/r/bettafish/wiki/index
Only once your tank is fully cycled (0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 5-15ppm nitrAte) for a 3.5g tank, you will need to do one 30% partial water change (PWC) mid-week (Wednesday for example), and one 30% PWC at end of week (Sunday for example). Or if you won't be there over the weekend then do 1 PWC Tues. and 1 on Friday.
Good luck!
Things you need:
API Master Test Kit, Prime and Stability. EVERY DAY you have to change 20-25% of your water, add Prime and then add your Stability (Shake it up) right into your filter. Maybe it's your filter? What kind are you using? If you add a bio sheet sponge, it will cycle faster as the bacteria actually will grow 1000X faster in that than a carbon cartridge. Here are the sponges http://www.amazon.com/3IN1-BIO-SPONGE-Biochemical-Sponge-QUACLEAR/dp/B00VPL0V0W/ref=asc_df_B00VPL0V0W/?
Keep your water at 80 degrees...If you use gravel, that also helps as a space for BB t grow as well. I cycled all my tank in about 7-10 days doing this.
can you remove the tag= part of the amazon link? It's an amazon affiliate tag, and we don't want random people benefiting from links shared on our sub.
edit: a "clean" link, (like this: http://www.amazon.com/3IN1-BIO-SPONGE-Biochemical-Sponge-QUACLEAR/dp/B00VPL0V0W/) is always safe
