First learn your fish’s ideal water temperature and check the room temperature before deciding to heat the tank. In northern cities with central heating, warming is usually unnecessary, but to guard against power or heating outages, install a heater set between 24-28 C that activates when the temperature drops. Do not place the heater against the glass, or uneven heating could crack the tank.
