I have a 1.5 gallon tank that up until the other day housed my betta. I recently lost him due to dropsy and am thinking that once I'm home again I might get another critter. The tank has a filter, heater, sand substrate, a japanese moss ball, two pieces of driftwood, and some java moss. i was wondering if it would be possible to keep 2-3 ghost shrimp and a zebra snail in it.

Those sound like good choices for such a small tank. Just be careful heating such a small tank, especially if it is not glass.

I've heard different things about what bettas need. But he was a happy little guy, pretty active, built me lots of nests. Ate well.
I've had apple snails and they breed like crazy. Not fun. They end up everywhere.

I like nerite snails. I think they come in spotted, striped and olive colors and are pretty big. They can't breed in fresh water but will lay eggs that won't hatch, which can be easily scrapped off. They also only eat algea, algea waffers, and zucchini, so your plants will be safe. =]
