== == Flaring is healthy for your betta, not only mentally but as well as physically (exercise) which can increase their immune system. However, too much flaring is unhealthy as it stresses him out (flaring is a sign of your betta trying to intimidate its rival) and may lead to torn fins. So I recommend maybe a few times a week for no longer than 2-3 minutes.
Whenever I put a mirror up to my Betas bowl and let him do his thing he always seemed to be in a good mood afterward so I'll say yes. Just do it every so often, not all the time.
Flaring is when a Betta fully opens their gill covers and membrane (beard) under their chin to make themselves look bigger. They also spread their fins as wide as possible to maximise their size. The flaring display is used to scare off opponents and to impress the opposite sex.

He's fine if I'm right, he's just flaring at his own reflection. Is your Betta a bright color? Is your tank wall REALLY, REALLY clean? My white Veiltail Betta Splenden did the same thing for the first few days i had him. he'll stop soon ;)
