That will work just fine. I would reccommend a heater. You want the temp to get around 80 degrees.

I have known several people to put small apple snails in with their betta tank and change the water as usual. I think it's a nice addition.

An Apple Snail will be fine in an unfiltered tank. Just change the water weekly, as if you have a Betta.
