The snails are great as tank mates cause they also clean the tank for you. My betta likes to chase them around the tank or when they are not doing much he likes to flare at them but he does not harm them in anyway

Fish For Thought put his betta in with some shrimp and she murdered them all, so that might not be the best option. 😅 Generally it seems like it depends on the personality of the individual betta and it's better to not risk putting one in with anything but snails (they just don't like, need or want other tank mates). Also I'm just imagining him shuddering over the artificial decor 😂 but it looks so pretty, and I think it will look even better once the plants grow out more. 😊

Your tank set up is so stunning and ethereal. I love how you incorporated the trippy artificial plants with the real ones. If you want to replace the charcoal filter, you could always buy an aquarium sponge and cut it to fit the filter space- they have plenty of surface area to cultivate the beneficial bacteria. I also noticed it looks like you have a little bit of algae growing on some of the decor. If this is a problem, I'd suggest lowering the light levels while the bigger plants establish themselves. I have a 5 gal for my betta with some live plants, and I have a pretty small LED light on a timer for 8 hours a day, and so far I haven't had issues with algae. Overall BEAUTIFUL, thoughtful setup and I'm excited to see what fish you end up with!
