I used one of those filter sponges - the ones that you use as media in those hang on the back filters. I just ripped a piece and made sure it plugs the hole.

Well, if you want more than just a betta, go with the s15. I'll link you to everything I bought. S15 is two bucks cheaper with prime. I have prime, if you don't then just choose another seller. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0032G8TQQ?cache=06ba174150f5f99c861821c037a5d14d&pi=SX200_QL40&qid=1408422793&sr=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1 Here's foam for mechanical: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0002AQK4S?cache=06ba174150f5f99c861821c037a5d14d&pi=SX200_QL40&qid=1408422856&sr=8-2#ref=mp_s_a_1_2 Here's bio media: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000A7BCG4?cache=06ba174150f5f99c861821c037a5d14d&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&qid=1408422856&sr=8-7#ref=mp_s_a_1_7 And then use a knife or a scissor and cut off all the foam of the three cartridges that come with it. Use that as filter floss, and layer it. I used the white balls that are inside the cartridges, as they promote bacteria growth. I added all of those from the cartridges, then the cloth from the cartridge, so it didn't float away, and then I added charcoal (skip this, if you want, I just wanted the tank to be clear while cycling, I'm gonna take it out soon) then the rest of the floss. All that is where the water comes into. Then I added bio max in the first compartment, then in the last two, the foam for the aqua clear. The motor is underwater, and I can't hear a thing! Like you have to strain your ears trying to listen, and its a barely audible him. My bio wheel, was clunky and was loud. Bearable loud, but loud non the less. And just put the last sponge of the three on the outtake, so current will be dispersed. Buy a heater too, and then the tank.
I forgot to link one of the replacement sponges for reference that you can just cut a hole in so here it is: https://smile.amazon.com/Aquaclear-50-Gallon-Foam-Inserts-3-Pack/dp/B0002AQK4S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1500080041&sr=8-1&keywords=aquaclear+sponge
 
I'm surprised he went up your filter, but then again, mine tried to swim up my Gravel Vacuum during a water change sooo.... Some of them are just too curious lol.
