Lol, my tank temperature is usually 80 degrees... It's the hottest that it has ever been before where I live.
80 degrees, no heater, and the light is turned off because the tank kept on getting overheated. I was on my computer a few months ago (when this drought and unbearably hot summer began!) and looked at Dante's tank, and was like 'OMG' because it was 85 degrees! So I turned the light off and poured some cooler water in the tank.
XD I'm waiting to buy a heater, because in the winter it actually gets cold where I live. It's just so hot outside! Sometimes it gets to 107 degrees outside... 0.0

I don't have a heater anymore because my tank is in the hottest part of the house. (And it's upstairs, which is even hotter. >.<) I almost fried Romo once with the heater. O.e I stil lfeel bad.

I'd love to get Betta fish, but I dont have the time, money, or know-how to care for them. :c

Cool, The Nutella Queen!
And if you ever get the tim and/or money, I'd be happy to give you some info! And I'm sure Cardinal would too. (She/He's helped me out a bunch!)

Here's my basic 'Betta Splendens guide'
Things you should have:
Water conditioner
A tank (2.5 gallons or more)
A net
Decorations (make sure the plants won't tear your betta's fins) and hidey places
Aquarium salt (for freshwater fish!)
Filter (if the tank is big enough)
Light (if the tank is big enough)
Heater (You don't need one, but it's good to have one if you live where it is cold)
Thermometer (the tank should be 76-80 degrees)
Food
