Questions & Answers

Are these safe for a 2 gallon aquarium?

Answer by Chewy • Aug 04, 2021
The betta heater can support up to 2 gallon tanks.

Can this be put in a plastic tank?

Answer by Chewy • Apr 20, 2021
SunGrow Halfmoon Betta Aquarium Heater can be used for plastic tanks.

What does a red light mean? Does that mean it's on?

Answer by Chewy • Mar 29, 2022
The light will show when the heater is on. When the water temperature is under 74°F, the aquarium heater starts working. When the water temperature reaches higher than 77°F , the aquarium heater stops heating. This ensures that the temperature stays constant between 74-77°F (24-25 ℃) which is the ideal temperature for Betta.

Can this heater be used on acrylic tanks or will it melt?

Answer by Chewy • Apr 12, 2021

My betta was sulking near the glass and barely moving, which freaked me out. I checked the water and it felt way too cool for him. I put in this aquarium heater and waited, hoping for the best. Not long after, the tank felt steady and my betta started cruising around like he owned the place again!!. Easy setup, quiet, and it DOESNT mess with the space. Kinda funny how warm water fixed his mood?

Glad to find this

My betta was getting lethargic due to the temperature of the water, our room being cooler. I got this heater and it has worked great.

I’ve been using this betta heater in my 1-gallon aquarium for a while now, and it has performed flawlessly. The temperature stays perfectly consistent, creating a comfortable and stable environment for my betta without any risk of overheating. I was initially concerned about such a small tank being difficult to regulate, but this heater has proven to be incredibly reliable. Its compact and sleek design fits easily into tight spaces, making it ideal for small aquariums or nano tanks. Despite its size, it heats efficiently and doesn’t take up much room, which is a huge plus for smaller setups. The build quality feels solid, and it operates quietly without any noticeable fluctuations. For the price, this heater is an absolute steal. It delivers great performance without any of the issues I’ve experienced with cheaper, unreliable heaters in the past. If you’re looking for an affordable, dependable heater for a small betta tank
