Betta Help Please!

[Emms]

My heater has broke, its 8:20pm so I can't get one till 10am tomorrow earliest.

Will my betta be ok? Any tips, I'm so worried

What is your room temp?
As long as you dont live in antarctica, I think your betta will be okay lol.

I'm keeping my fire on overnight, I know I sound silly but I just got him today and my heater has decided to give up on me after working fine all afternoon

bettas can adapt to diff temps can't they?

some of my bettas are in heated tanks for spawning but the others are not heated and they live in great condition with a room temperature at 22 degrees at night and 26 during the day, ive had bettas stand at 20 degress before with no apparent effects from the lower end of the scale, as a short measure they should be fine so dont worry a cooler temp will just slow down their metabalism (sp) and this is what keeps them good and dandy. so having the fire on will help keep the temp up but dont put yourself at risk with leaving the fire on whilst you go to bed.

You could just wrap the tank in a blanket or something to keep the heat in. I agree; don't leave your fire on.
