If that's the one I think it is, then yes.
I'm guessing it's an Aquastart? About 28cm x30cm x30cm (length, width, height), holding roughly 5/6 imperial gallons?

Edit: Whoops, didn't read the description properly.

Yes, that's a brilliant betta tank!

Infact, I have one myself-though I've just moved my betta to a larger tank with the rest of my fish.

nice tank for a betta, ive got the slightly bigger corner tank version and im looking for a betta i want to put in it

 

[matty101]

hmm I want one of those now...but £39.99 is quite expensive...for me that's about $50.00!!! lol Ill stick with the 2 ½ gallons for 39.99 here

I assume its a big no no but would bettas get allong with the firework/ galaxys presume not as they are basically small neons lol, Saw them for first time today and looked good

Also i want a larger one so he will have space to swim, Do you think these will be too heavy to go ontop of normal cabinates or will they need re-enforcing

In the US we can get a 3 US gal acrylic with filter and light for less than $40.

They're great tanks Rich, everything you need in one package. I know that Miss Wiggle has one up and running for her Betta, I think she posted pics in the planted forum.. or the pictures forum. Go on, you know you want to And your Betta will love you for it
As for Galaxy Rasboras as tank mates, I wouldn't. Galaxy Rasbora are still hard to feed, and noone is really sure what water conditions they need yet. They're just too new. Rasboras are generally less nippy than barbs and tetras, but there is always the chance they will nip the Bettas tail.

£40 is more like $70 but you guys tend to get things cheaper over there, economies of scale and such. Also the tank is nearly 7.5 US gallons.

If it's 7.5 US gallons then the pricing is on par or slightly more expensive than US prices which is undertandable.

I know i want to get one and will probably for £40 its a steal imo, I will get it and then start looking for a really nice betta, Will a normal cabinate support the weight,
