Yes, awesome idea! I might try that once I can get a job.

NO, Bettas are tropical fish not coldwater! Their minimum temp is 76-78*F. And anyway the Goldfish would probably nip him to pieces.

and whats really sad is that petsmart tells you the size and people buy them for the tinyest tanks possible

A betta would make a very pretty change, but it is true you would have to get a filter and a heater. The tank will have to cycle through the Nitrogen Cycle. They are also much cleaner fish than goldfish and the thing to remember is you can only have ONE MALE betta in a tank as they fight each other. But they are gentle to you and to children. (Mine will eat right out of my hand)
