Louise02 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 How has this heater worked for your betta tanks? It seems like it wouldn't be quite warm enough.

Lennie Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Tank size and the difference between room temperatures that you keep your home at and the temperature you aim to have plays a big role on heater selection. Providing info on these two might help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Providing info on these two might help 2.5 gallon planted tank temporarily contains a betta. Once our current ich outbreak is under control, it will be a snail tank...maybe someday a shrimp tank. For now, I have two small heaters in there that, together, keep it at 80*. When we had the temp down around 74* the poor thing wouldn't even swim. The ambient temp fluxuates, but is about 70* most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furbs Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I have one in a 10g tank. It’s reading 74ish room temp is is about 70. Heater seems fine as long as you’re okay with the preset temp range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepere Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I use a 50 watt in a 10 gallon. 25 watt in a 2.5 should not pose a problem with ambient temps around 70.. the preset of course limits temp to the preset temp… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
