It's 3 gal. Too small for any tank mates. You can get a tank brush to clean algae and not have to worry about snails dying.
It’s actually only 3 gallons... a really bad overpriced ($90-$99) 3g tank which is basically the glorified larger version of sticking a betta in a vase and plugging the top with a plant... in other words, it belongs on r/shittyaquariums.

I have a [$97 fish tank] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZMHWF6/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=IAE8KUJNKQXQ3&colid=1YOSU3G7QSG64) thats cool as FUCK cuse it has like plants at the top and the tank part at the bottom.
Thank you so much for your reply! It doesn't seem like it, he swims happily all through his plant, he loves that thing, but I also only watch him about 15 minutes per feeding (2 times a day/ 3 pellets per feeding); I like to watch him swim around. Okay, I will continue the 20% water changes and add in aquarium salt. How much should I add? Okay, I will do that if the rate continues(bettafix). It's a 3 gallon tank (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZMHWF6/ref=asc_df_B01LZMHWF65022765/) it's supposed to be aquaponics, but currently it doesn't have any plants because I haven't owned a fish before, I wanted to focus on that first. No it is not filtered. Thanks again for your reply.
"buy it at indigogo for $300!"

apparently its called aquaponics.
Maybe look to see if there's ways to do small scale versions? This is probably the most unproductive version of aquaponics but at least it's something?

I recently got a "Back to the Roots Water Garden" (link) from a friend! I don't plan on putting a betta in there - I'm thinking some RCS and/or a big snail. I already put in a small sponge filter from another tank, so that should be able to maintain a real cycle instead of relying on the plants/aquaponics to keep the water parameters on track.
Does any one have this tank? I'm interested in using the top planting portion to grow cuttings from my garden, but I'm worried it will not receive enough light. If I move it closer to a window, I'm concerned about temperature fluctuations and algae blooms. Any tips? I haven't added a heater yet, but I should be able to fit one in.
It is actually one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZMHWF6
