Too hotJan 20, 2011
By Ted87
The heating power of this product is way underestimated.
It says it can raise a 1-3 gallon tank 5-10 degrees above room temp. I woke up the morning after i installed it and found my 2.5 gallon betta tank at 86 degrees with a room temp of 65. I'm glad i didn't buy this product in the summer or he'd probably be dead.
Without any kind of built in thermostat you have to constantly monitor your tanks temp and plug or unplug the heater.
It might be safe for a 5 gallon but if your tank is any smaller than that this heater is too powerful.

 best little heaterMar 20, 2011
By noseyrosey
I almost gave up on finding a heater that actually lived up to the standards in their descriptions. Two others that I tried never went past 72 degrees, although the descriptions said they went to 78 degrees. This little BettaTherm heater is the absolute best. It stays at a consistent 79-80 degrees. My Betta, Clifford is just thriving in his 2.5 gallon bowl. He is so much more active since I put in this heater. This heater takes up no room, is flat and covered by your rocks on the bottom of the bowl. There is a suction cup that holds the cord nicely against the side of the bowl. I would say..stop looking at other heaters, this is the best out there.

I tried using this in a 1 gallon desk aquarium for our betta and small snail. Over night, it raised the tank temperature over 15 degrees. Killed the snail.

HorridMar 31, 2012
By Kylie Marie
Ok this product was HORRIBLE! I put it in a 2.5 gallon with 1 betta. I placed it under 1 inch of rock.....and it NEVER heated the tank. I am so DISGUSTED with this product. Do yourself a favor, go to wal-mart and buy one of theirs!
