Why is a male betta better for a baby biOrb?

Is it actually good for the fish or is it just "okay"
How long do they survive for in a baby biOrb?
Thanks in advance.
Thank you again Ghappy!!

Male betta’s work in that tank because they stay small and are not aggressive swimmers – those long fins slow them down. And at 4 gallons (I beleive?) that tank is absolutely fine for a single betta. With proper care and diet, and perhaps a bit of luck, they can live 5 years or more. My last one died just short of 6 years.
*edit – It is just OK, perhaps good. A great home is 10 gallons or more with lots of plants, that way the fish can swim and roam and live and thrive instead of just sit around (they do sit around a lot too, but they can be very active as well). Also, male bettas can be kept with many different types of community fish in a larger tank.
ya can’t put just any fish in a biOrd, they swim to the angle of the tank and there buoyancy gets all knackard then they die, ask your pet shop for the best ones
baby Biorbs are too small for any fish, overpriced and they have terrible filtration. You would be better off with a 5+ gallon heated and filtered rectangle aquarium. Bettas come from large bodies of water such as slow moving streams and rice paddies so the bigger the tank the better.
