I looked up fish care:
http://www.aquariumguys.com/betta-fish-care-article.html

and it says, "For a tank smaller than a gallon, change 100% of the water once a day or at least 3x/week. For a larger tank, do partial water changes of 25% of water a week. Be sure to siphon or vacuum your gravel when you change your water...Tap water is generally safe for your betta fish, but should be left standing for 24 hours in order to condition it and bring it to room temperature. The PH level of your water source is important to measure and adjust as needed (betta buffers do this for you). The betta fish prefers as close to neutral water as possible, 7.0, but can manage in water that is between 6.5 and 7.5. Aquarium filters and Aquarium heaters are not needed for tanks less than 5 gallons and actually should be avoided.

The gravel in your tank should provide adequate biological filtration in this setup. Everything should be fine as long as you change the water frequently and remove excess food and debris immediately."

i think the fishkeeper (the friend who gave us the fish) is going to take care of it. i just feed it.
