IMO, the betta wouldnt have much more room than the bowl... for example, say the pond area is approximately 8''x4''X4''deep...thats only 0.5 gallons...its most likely less than the bowl... plus who knows, the betta could become aggressive and attack anything that enters the water... IMO, things like ghost shrimp, tetras, and minnows, would work much better...
