NO,
2 liters of water are not sufficient for any fish!

Nor for the Betta splendens , which is the smallest among the freshwater tropical fish, and 2 liters are sufficient even for strategic common "goldfish", regardless of family, genus, species and breed.

And remember something else for those few (I hope) that caress the idea of placing a fish into cubes, flasks, bowls, boxes of glass or plastic that is: fish, amphibians and invertebrates are animals like all others, where abuse is punishable by law!
In some municipalities, such as Rome and Florence, was declared illegal to possess fish in aquariums with less than 30 liters. As is increasingly common in the municipal regulations of the rule prohibiting animals put up for grabs in fairs, raffles, amusement park and company any animal (which in fact were often kept in conditions worse, because probabilmenter result of luck and not a reasoned choice).

Some people may think why Raffaele came to mind this story ... the explanation is simple, as it is absurd if we want: I ran the advertising of ASKOLL of "mini-aquarium adorable 'combatants'", called just " Marina Betta Kit . "
And I repeat ASKOLL, so the last of the companies that manufacture and market products specifically dedicated all'acquariologia ... but how the heck he came to mind not only to put it on sale (maybe in silence, passing it off as an ornament, I would have been able to digest) but also to put a prize in their contest "ASKOLL THE CHOICE AWARDS YOU". Even 100 if they can win, which could potentially end up 100 poor little fish!
And I continue to disassemble this product by adding a phrase that seems crazy to me, "Marina Betta Kit is both the container of life and furnishing. It 'a gift for those who love nature but also the design "... and nature lovers want to keep a fish in such a short space? Little more than a bottle of mineral water (because many still buy ... even in Rome, where the water is great ... but we do not go off topic! :-) )
The Askoll writes "furnishing" and that COSO does not need accessories or wiring ... and I believe, is NOT an aquarium, is a COSO, are 5 pieces of plastic glued. We call it "water CONTAINER", nothing more, and inside we piazzarci as a seedling in the picture, that is.
But fish please, please, please, NO!

I hope that AKOLL, if not to me directly or to the many friends who have written and write, at least meet acquariofile many associations that surely can not remain motionless in front of this product and advertising that gravitates around.
