Hi!,
I have a quick question! What kind of heater should I get for a MiniBow 2.5?

I actually use the Hydor heaters...and many people will advise you against it, but I've got it in 3 tanks and have never had a problem...

For my 2.5 (maybe its 3 gal) I have a betta therm. It's not controllable though so you have to keep your eye on the thermometer. It only heats the water a couple degrees according to the temp in the room they're in. I love my betta therm bc it works and it's concealable. I don't like the look of too many unnatural do-hickeys in my natural- look tank :P

Is 25 watts safe for that size tank?
