Well i have 3 day old betta fish (i was not expecting them) and the tank is really messy so i was wondering if i would be safe to move them to a smaller container while i clean the tank. I was going to just scoop them out with a cup is this alright to do?

No do not move the fry as they are very sensitive to many thing right not and if you move them to a different container the temp might drop slightly and cause they to die, just get a piece of air line tubing and use it as a siphon and clean all the stuff out, but its up to you what you would like to do.

the babies might feed on the stuff on the ground, or you can vaccum it up when they're older
