We have been having electric problems and for some reason our heat has stopped working and our hot water isn't working, so can I use the heater from my 20g (50 watt heater) and put it in the 2.5g and put it on a temp to where it will heat the tank to 78 using thermometer? Right now in the apartment its already cold and I'm sitting here in a jacket and sweats. Its getting cold in here.

If I didn't how could I be talking on here? LOLThat won't help because I can't stay up all night heating up water.
Well, you could have a laptop
Sorry, thats all i can think of.
Put the 2.5 gallon & the 1 gallon in the empty 20 long. Not just the fish, the entire tanks. Add enough water to the 20 long to come to just below the rim iof the shortest tank inside of it. Put the heater in the water of the 20 long. If it's not a submersable heater, hang it lower with a piece of string.
I have a 2.5 gallon, and a 20 long, I know the 1 tank will fit inside the other. As long as there is some contact between the water in the 20 long and the 2 smaller tanks you will have heat transfer. It's sort of like floating bags of fish in a tank before releasing, just on a larger scale.
