Well that's what I meant by "happy," haha he knew it was his place then.
Easier fish to care for - I know ALL fish require water changes, care, etc, but it seems Bettas are a little more sensitive to everything than other types of fish. My brother in law has a 10 gallon aquarium with several different kinds of fish, and he hardly ever has to do anything to it. My neighbor has offered me a larger tank, but I don't really have the space for one right now!

Actually, Bettas are one of the most hardiest fish ever. They are one of the most easiest fishes to care for but eh, it's your choice. :) And your BIL must have a cycled tank then. Good for him, not doing any water changes because of cleanliness. :D How big is your neighbor's tank?
