I do not use it because it is just basically aloe and some vitamins. If your betta is healthy it will be fine without it and the only recommendation I would make is that the lights be left off for the first 24 hours to allow the betta to settle in. He will be spooky but if he can quietly just snoop about on his own in the darker conditions he will be fine. The less stuff in the water for him to have to adapt to the better.

I am really a purist at heart. Every time you put a chemical in the water you add something they have to deal with. If it is not a necessity, not needed. If I wanted to add something to calm a fish for any reason it would be Kordon Fish Protector and that I just use when the fish is injured or sick and I need to keep it from injuring itself further or if it is aggressive and needing to be calmed down.

Just put conditioner in the water for removal of the chlorine, chloramine, and heavy metals and otherwise just let the tank be as the fish will have to get used to being in it all the time.
