I keep my Betta Fish in a 6 gallon tank. Is it to small? Do I need a bigger tank? Thanks!

A 6 gallon tank is fine for one Betta. You don't want to go any smaller than 5 gallons unless you want to perform frequent maintenance. Be sure to provide adequate filtration, low current and proper temperature (78F to 80F).
