    Looks like it should be fine. As an aside watch out for deco's that have small openings that they can poke their heads into, but are too small for the rest of their body to go through; I lost a much-loved betta to that.

    Doubt it, fish fins are stronger then you might think. However at that price, I would try something more natural, just IMO since I dont like artificial ornaments
