My sponger filter arrived just yesterday and is in today!

But before I've put in, I did a slight water change after moving around my sand cleaned out glass (inside):

Made a DIY out of scrap light holder and added light:

There are still those little bubbles on sides of water surface, but I think they should clear up with time with the cloudiness and I'll also need to clean the sand off fish feces.

This kind of filter is the type often recommended for bettas. It's just a sponge and the water is pulled through the sponge by an air pump. The reason they are good for bettas is they don't create much water flow.
