I've had my first betta for almost a year now and he seems to be doing well. The tank I originally got him isn't though. So I've been looking at other tank options for him. I know the whole 5 gallon schpiel but I just don't have that kind of room in a dorm. I currently have a 2.5 gallon tank and am looking for something around that size.
These were some I was looking into:

http://www.amazon.com/Tetra-29002-C...1400767139&sr=8-9&keywords=3+gallon+fish+tank

Is one brand any better than another? If there are other tanks than you have found to be great at this size please let me know! Thanks.

Those all seem decent. I've seen them all mentioned on here except for the first, rounded one.

This is also one that a lot of people have and like: http://www.amazon.com/Aqueon-17771-...e=UTF8&qid=1400768735&sr=1-1&keywords=minibow

I have a Marineland Crescent that looks almost the same as the Tetra one you have on the third link, and while its okay, I wouldnt recommend it. Mine likes to creak at me when im refilling water and where the light clamp is on top likes to break since its acrylic. Mine has just a small crack, but I dont move mine much. Dorm living, where you'd likely be moving it while your on break, probably wouldnt let it hold up well.

http://www.petsmart.com/fish/aquari...d36-20597/cat-36-catid-300013?var_id=36-20597 is something i've seen recommended as a small tank before, though I dont have one personally.
