New tank.

[2tank]

I am getting ready to get a new tank, which I plan to get a betta for. Due to the high temperature of the tank and the fact I want to make a dark water tank. I Am not sure what plants will do fine in the conditions.

well, go with a biotope style aquarium, lets say your betta species is from thailand, in that case you have cryptocoryne, vallisneria, pogostemon, rotala, java moss and java fern as easy to care for plants, so it all comes down to the size of your tank i hope it is a 10-15 gallon

I would go with a 10g tank. Why does it have a high temperature? (Location? Or heater?)

Bettas prefer 72F - 86F. (86F being the absolute maximum)

Just make sure that you use an accurate thermometer to measure the temperature of the water, before adding the betta or any other stock.

looks really good, maybe cover all those rocks on a mix of microsorum pteropus and java moss, i think it would look cool.
