Heater: What Heater goes with this aquarium?

I have used DB BETTASTIK MINI SUB HTR 7.5W with good results. Another that may work would be the Zoo Med BettaTherm Submersible Betta Bowl Heater.

The eheim heater I bought for my 40 gallon tank did not maintain the temperature I wanted and was hard to adjust. I bought a Via Aqua 200 for tanks up to 50 gallon instead and it works fine and has an easy adjustable protruding knob for temperature control. I use the eheim for heating RO water for water changes.

I seriously doubt it. I've used tank heaters in aquariums (not terrariums) and they seem to require full power. It seems like you need something with a thermostat. This simply controls the amount of power going to the device. I certainly would not risk my pet's life/health with this sort of set up.

Two choices. Either two 100 w heaters at opposite sides of the tank or a 200w should work. These heaters are powerful and heat better than other brands of the same wattage.

It works well in my mind Fluval SPEC Desktop Glass Aquarium, 2-gallon. The heater itself need to be submerged at all time.

A 150 watt heater should suffice for this size of tank if you are going to keep tropical fish not cool water varieties (such as goldfish). The main thing to remember is to keep a constant temperature and water conditions. I listed below a few good websites for beginners. My advice is to do a lot of research on the fish you want to keep and set the tank up appropriately to the types you want to have. Also remember to cycle your tank before adding any fish and after the tank is up and running do regular water changes and tank maintenance.

I purchased a Marina C10 compact 10 watt heater with this tank and the heater is self regulating. I keep an eye on it and it works perfectly so far!

I actually got a betta heater that suctions to the side of this tank without an issue. I love this tank. I would, however, invest in a different "filter" as it doesn't come with a filter but an air stone. I found a small tank filter at my local pet store. The LED light is amazing, several colors and a couple effects on it. All in all my Betta and I love this tank :)

The Aqueon is been unreliable for temp, I bought a Eheim heater and its holding temp well, for a tank your size the 300w should do the trick, rated for up to 250g

Hi - I no longer have that heater - it broke when I was cleaning the aquarium. I was concerned about continuing to use a glass heater, so I use a different type now. As I recall, though, it was about 8 inches long (or so) and it did shut off when it reached the set temperature.

No because a heater would make the water too hot since it is a 1 gallon tank. The fish would be unhealthy.

I have been using a cheap $10 tetra heater. Have had no problems for 6 months so far. But the led lighta on my tank are quitting one by one. Im a bit disappointed in that because the tank was so expensive.

I would NOT go with the Fluval heaters... They only heat the water x degrees above ambient. I ONLY use the Rena SmartHeater Aquarium Heater (50W) in ALL of my aquariums... Does the job VERY well and is adjustable :-)

It depends on how warm you keep the room that the aquarium is on. If you keep the room temp at 75F, the water temp will be about 73 in the aquarium. Therefore if you only need the aquarium temp to be 78-80, that means it only has to raise the temp 5-7 degrees. You go by the room tempuature to determine how much wattage of heater you need. I personally use two on my 120gal to keep a more consistent temp throughout the tank because I have a cannister filter on both ends.

Checking at www.Rheem.com i can only find one "short" tank heater, it is 30 gal electric. Maybe you should consider a tankless heater.

There is a filter included. No heater, but Betta's don't need heat. Great tank!

Any heater designed for <5 gallon tanks will fit in the same chamber designated for the water pump. Having said that, if the overall ambient temperature of the room you're placing the tank in averages around 70 degrees, I wouldn't even bother with a heater because you may experience unwanted algae growth...
