Sounds like a plan. 
Some Bettas do and some Bettas don't like bubblers; so keep it as low as you can and see how he reacts. He may be like one I had years ago and play in it or he may hate it. You never know.
You will also need a water testing kit. The liquid ones are more expensive than the strips but also more accurate. You also need some sort of water conditioner. Many of us use Seachem "Prime." It detoxifies ammonia and you use it with every water change.
If you don't have a top on your tank, get one; preferably with a light. Bettas are great jumpers.
Read the stickies on cycling in the Habitat section. If you don't understand something in there, just ask. I use Seachem "Stability" to help the cycle along but that's not necessary. There's varied opinions on whether it works but it does for me. Live plants also help with the ammonia.
I'm sure others will think of more.
