Thanks for the lengthy response! Knowledge is always great. (: Yeah, two is definitely my limit for beginning, but it's good to know they'll be okay with two. I intend to get them a wheel, the local pet shop where I'm going has them, so that's not an issue. Do you think I should get two, or would that just be too crowded..?
Where do you buy your fleece? Could I just pick some up at Walmart/Target/etc?

That's the sort of keeper I'm thinking of using - no pesky side holes for the mice to get out of or my cat's claws to get in, but the top is entirely ventilated.
This is what i use in my tank. You will have plenty of room for this or even the next size up in a 120G

when you say critter keeper are you talking about this? i have an old one that i was thinking of using. are there any size restraints/recommendations?
I just have one of these. I usually just lay a dish towel in the bottom and sit him in it. Seems to work pretty well. I'm not man enough to carry one of the fleece pouches/purses so this is my alternative.

Look, /u/piratesaurus is giving you good advice but IMO it's not the easiest way to introduce your friend to good fish keeping. For starters, everything for larger tanks is more expensive. The tank, the heater, the filter, the dividers...all more expensive. That's like a $100 setup. Another problem is that she'll have to learn all about the nitrogen cycle, so that's another big chemical concept. You want the easiest way to make these guys happier and spend an infinitely less amount of money? Here.
Two Med/large KritterKeepers - plastic, less expensive than glass, small, and no hassle doing an arts and crafts project for the divider and worrying about one fish jumping over it. Also comes with a lid, which actually is very important since some bettas are real jumpers. You just don't know which ones are jumpers and it's better to have a lid. Mine never jumps. Other people, their betta always did it and jumped and died the 1 time they forgot the lid.
Two small heaters - stick them in and plug them in.
Water conditioner - Prime is cheap and concentrated. 2 drops per gal
Gravel - not needed if you want the bare minimum
Silk plants from a craft store - way less expensive than pet store plants and almost always made of soft fabric, not hard plastic which can tear fins. Just cut off what you need. Bettas like to float on the surface.
2 thermometers - temp should be around 78
Pellets - NLS (for betta or small fish) or Omega one (for betta)
There you go. No filter for this cause it's so small. Do 100% change once a week. Feed 3 pellets 2x a day.
