Betta Questions...

Here's a few of my tanks:

[My Peanuts]

I don't have a picture at this moment, but I have a 5 gallon mini bow. It's just like Kara's above. I have a heater in it too, but I haven't been using it. I didn't like the way Drew acted with it and I'm afraid to use it with Typhoon. The tank stays pretty warm with just the light, but my Dad keeps our house pretty warm too.

[Toby's my baby]

How warm should the water be for them?

[Suki Wingy]

GORGEOUS tanks guys!

How warm should the water be for them?

If I'm not mistaken, it's 70-72 degrees.

Yes but most don't even use heaters in them (well some don't, not most) and they do fine at room temperature

*nod* I don't use a heater on Sebastian's tank, and he does great. Oh, and another thing, make sure you get a tank with a lid, and if you happened to get one with a filter, I heard bettas don't like strong currents.

I don't have a pic of Xambi's tank, but I can get one after my family gets home tonight. It is a 2.5 gallon tank, with a couple of fake plants and a filter. He seems to not mind the filter, and I have one that is set up for a small tank (it can be adjusted for larger and smaller tanks) One thing that I have heard about filters, is that their fins can get stuck in them and cause damage, so I put a clean nylon(sp?) over mine. It seems to work well with Xambi...
