I have a red betta just like this and he lives with a snail. It's hard to find any live aquarium plants in the country where I live, but he's got a pretty big tank and some rocks from the Black Sea in there. I guess it's minimalist, but when we move to the US I'm going to follow your steps and set him up a paradise. (Apparently pet fish can fly with you, and I'd never leave him behind)

Snails can be quite inconsiderate. I embrace the bladder snails in my tanks, but at any given time I can find at least one poor snail with no less than 3 other snails riding him in each of my tanks.

[@taylor.annalise1]

Should I put snails in my betta tank? I’m starting up my first planted tank and I don’t know it I should or not

[@finnrohleder2523]

Ok

[@somerandomperson7223]

@@taylor.annalise1 Depends. Although they may not require as much care as fish, they still do poop, despite people thinking they clean the tank of poop. If you’re looking for tank mates, it’s fine. If you can afford to take care so many lives, it’s fine. However, they reproduce very quickly, if you’re going to get them then you should prepare your heart to cull them if necessary. You should make sure your betta isn’t really aggressive or likes eating/fighting snails, because if it manages to kill one, not only will you now have dead snails but a maybe sick betta (because of the shell if they somehow try to eat it and stress). Make sure your snails don’t stress out your betta and make sure to clean the snails’ poop too. Snails are very cute, helpful and annoying, so while they do improve your tanks’ looks and health, they can also be a nuisance because they breed too much. Don’t be surprised if you find snails all over your house, your couch, your desk, almost anything (an exaggeration but you know what I mean)!
