What do I get for a filter because I also read that they like still water. What would I feed it and where would I get the food? Do they get along with other fish? I was thinking that maybe I could get him one of those sucker fish (the ones with the name that's impossible to pronounce) to help keep the tank clean. I can't think of any other questions right now.
Thanks in advance,

1) tank : 1 - 2 feet is enough. (for just 1 betta)
2) filter : hang on filter is enough
3) food : red worm (every LFS have)
4) other fish : depends how angry is ur betta, if very powerful, i think no need to put other fish cause either one of them will injured. maybe u try to buy some kelah or anything inside. Bandaraya or cleaning snail also can put inside help for cleaning purpose.
5) other : betta is very easy to keep. no worry. first time, u must buy a local betta fish first for testing purpose. after 1 week or 2 week, u can buy pretty with expensive betta.
hope it can help!!
