Am I taking Care of my Male Betta Good?

He's in a 3 Gallon tank. It has a Tetra Whisper 3i Internal filter. He is a Veil Tail Male. He eats Tetra Betta Flakes with Color Enhancers. He eat 2x a day and what he can eat in 2min. He is very active. The water is 76F. It is cycled. I do Weekly 25%-50% Water Changes. Do you think I can add 2-3 ghost shrimp or a snail or what do you guys think?

    You are actually taking very good care of your betta! Good for you for not plopping him in a tiny vase without any filtration or heat. You can add 2 shrimp or mystery snails. But here's a warning, if he's aggressive he might kill and eat them. c: Good luck!

    Yes, you are taking proper care of it, and you could add the shrimp ( I would only add 2) or a snail, or 1 shrimp and a snail Ghost shrimp do better with live plants..
