heaters

Has anyone found a heater for a 1 gal tank, preferably one that you can control the temperature on?

The best I can find is a 2-5 gal heater at walmart, which doesn't let you control the temp on it. I know I need heaters because my house is kept pretty cool, especially at night. Sometimes it is as low as 58 .

So far as I know no one has come up with a heater for a 1 gal. The best advice I've heard for them is a reptile heating pad that you sit their tanks on and it warms the tanks from the outside.

Just get the Neptune 25 watt heater from PetSmart. They say up to 5 gallons and hold heat VERY well. I'm using one in my 2.5 gallon right now. The temp is controllable with actual numbers on the dial (not just high and low). Same one BettaMomma uses in her tanks... haha. Thanks, girlie!

Cool! I will pick up a few next time I head to that way (about 45 min away). I know the LPS doesnt have anything for smaller tanks (I might have to work on that one).

Thankfully, the cold spell is over, so for the moment, the temp is fine. I will probably put him back into the my barb tank for the night though. I just felt bad for my tiger barbs b/c he was taking up alot of their swimming space, although I think they enjoyed playing through the glass...it was really funny to watch.
