Can I add a heater to this tank?

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 :)

You sure can. I added one to mine. Just make sure it is a heater for under a five gallon tank

I believe the tank is too small for this purpose. I have one located in my garage just for washing hands etc. and the hot water doesn't seem to last that long.

Hi. In all honesty i don't know what heaters to use precisely, because the fish that i get don't really need the hearter. I avoid getting high maintenance fish for this tank. I figure its small and simple. So if i was you, i wouldn't get expensive fish. The fish i have is 1 albino pleco, 5neon barbs, 5zebras skinny fish.Thats it. &the tank looks great. They alive since jan 2014.

I would recommend finding some higher quality heater for your 300gal tank. You could find a 1000watt heater or just run 2 heaters

Yes. I use a 20 lb and 40 lb tank (switch out) and have had no problems. I use heater for supplemental heating. I assume because the smaller tanks will lose pressure faster is why they state only a 100 lb tank. I found you need to make sure you have a proper regulator (low pressure).

Yes, but there is an issue with freezeup after about 45-60 min. I got around it by hooking up 2 (20 lb) tanks up together using an attachment (http://www.propaneproducts.com/catalog/all-mr.-heater-parts-fittings-hoses/mr.-heater-2-tank-hookup-98.html) good luck.

No heater and not sure if you could add. The only fish that will survive this tank as-is would be a beta.

Yes, you can, all it gonna do heat your water fast. And I like that, I always like high wattage over low wattage doesn't matter tank size, it makes my fish comfortable fast. Imagine you are in a room with size 100 sqft with a room heater for 1000 sqft, your heater gonna make room heat fast and shutdown till temp goes down again.

Yes, as long as that is the only heat source. Make sure to have a thermometer in the tank too.

I placed a heater in my tank. I have had it for a year now and like it a lot.

No. If you want temp in your tank to be higher than room temp, use an additional heater.

The heaters are easy enough to switch from one tank to another. I would just make sure the water in the new tank is the right temperature before you make the switch. The heater could take quite a while to warm it up if it's too cold. The big advantage of having 4 is you would always have a backup on hand.

You can chose to place the heater against the wall of the tank (no cord submersion), or place the heater underneath gravel (cord submerged). I have had the heater at the bottom of my tank for almost a month and have had no problems.

This "tank" is only 2 gallons and the surrounding air in your home should be warm enough for any fish that would be suited for this little tank. Also, it's plastic, a heater would probably damage it...
