Can a heater be added to a tank like this for a betta?

Probably too small for a heater. Would believe that ambient temp will suffice for normal room temps.

This bowl is really too small for a heater. Plus the edges curve in, making it hard to attach. It is best to just put it under a desk lamp if the water is too cold.

Just take the cover off and you can put a pump/stone. I have a heater in my tank, I have a Betta. You have plenty of room. Good Luck

You can place some rocks around the heater but the grill (top vents) must be kept clear of rocks. You don't want to overheat the heater. Also the heater , if grill is blocked, won't warm up the water properly. The rocks might get more heat than the water. That defeats the purpose of the heater. I use this in a ten gallon tank for a turtle with the water level 1/3 of the height of the tank. If you have a larger tank or more water you will need more than one filter. If you want to hide the heater you could maybe put a thin flat rock along the side that will allow the heater to warm the water. Hope this helps.

You would need the 5 watt size for a 1.5 gallon tank. This one would be way too warm.

You can add a heater, and you can do it with the lid that comes with the tank. I added some special equipment to my tank, that's why I needed a custom lid. As for the heater, I would recommend the very smallest kind they make -- one that is intended for goldfish bowls or beta fish bowls. Most pet stores carry them. You can slide it into a compartment in the back of the tank.

I wouldn't recommend that. According to the manufacturer the smallest tank it should be connected to is a 100 lb tank. I called several LP distributors about refilling a 100 lb tank and would only fill a 100 gallon tank which you could buy or rent. It's going to cost me about $800 with permits and inspections to get it set up and I'm just renting the tank. The heater accepts a 1/2 inch black pipe.

Yes you will most likely need to purchase a heater. Google the water requirements for the type of fish you will be keeping. Even if your water is normally warm enough a heater is good as a backup for cold days to make sure it stays even. Fish won't like drastic changes in the temp. I have cichlid and they like the temp 79-82degress f

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 :)

1 heater is perfect cause it is a small tank. More then one would just crowd the space

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

I don't believe so. Mainly these mini heaters are intended for 1 gallon tanks and up, anything smaller will cook whatever you have in there. I think you'll be fine without one. I keep my Betta's in gallon cylinder glass containers in room temp and sometimes colder and they are perfectly fine.

If there is complete separation between each compartment, you might need a heater. If you are going to only keep Bettas, you might not need a heater at all, as long as the temperature in the room doesn't get too cold.

I'm not sure about a tank that small. As long as there is enough water to cover the heater and keep it cool I'm sure it would work.If you decide to try it I would recommend getting a submersible thermometer and monitoring the temp to ensure it doesn't get to warm.

Yes.. I have both a slim heater and a bubble filter in the back... Works great. I have two of these tanks and my Bettas are both thriving! I will try to attach a pic for you..i hope this helps. I love my Bettas please let me know if u have further questions..

it already has aeration, & I think there's room for a heater. I keep a betta in mine, but my house is warm enough that I don't use heater.

I'll say for Betta fish... but not sure if for any type of fish but it has no heater/filter. Just tank with led light.
