Yes you can Elaine - just put the heater in a small glass jar filled with
water and in turn put that jar in the tray of water which in turn has the
betta jars in the tray's water. Simple system I read about in an old
aquarium magazine a long time ago. The actual betta bowl water will be a
little lower in temperature than the heater jar but you can easily always
increase the thermostat's temperature (i.e. turn the knob on the heater a
little higher to compensate). Good luck and later!


No, this would then be like David was trying to point out (convection
heat), which wouldn't work very well at all........... Frank

Gotcha. Bummer. It sounded good...
