Breeding Tank for Bettas (temperature)?

I am feeding the female bloodworms and the male wont eat them, so I keep feeding him the regular pellets. I am aware that the tank water should be around 80-85 degrees. Or such things like that. How would I keep it that warm? Just regular room temp or is there something like a water heater so something I can add? Plus, if my female is eating the good food and my male won’t (including bloodworms and brine shrimp) will this be ok for him while he is helping the frys? By the way, they are all in the same tank. Not attacking or anything. Just a little chasing here and there.
Also, would I be able to add a snail to clean uyp the mess? Would it affect the baby fry?

Help feeding african dwarf frog?

I bought my african dwarf frog about 4 months ago, and had him housed in a 2.5 gallon tank with a male betta fish, I have since then moved him into a 5 gallon tank along with 2 guppys and a dwarf gourami.Ever since I bought the little guy,I’ve had to suck up frozen blood worms throuh a turkey baster and slowly feed him because the other fish always eat it all first. Even with this method, the other fish get a lot of the worms and I am starting to get sick of doing this every 3 days.I’ve tried everything,including HBH frog and tadpole pellets,brine shrimp,Hikari carnivore pellets, and live food,but it seems that my frog doesn’t even try to hunt for the food as other people say.I’ve even tried grabbing a carnivore pellet and shoving it in his mouth,but it didn’t work, and the only way he eats is if i feed him through the turkey baster. I feed him at night as this is when they are most active, but it’s still very difficult,is his only my frog? And is there anything else I can do?

What is the best food for African Cichlids?

I have tried blood worms( which they seem to like but i have hears that they shouldn’t have to much protein, brine shrimp, (flakes, floating pellets and sinking pellets they used to like this stuff but don’t really seem to want to touch it anymore) I have heard that you can use fresh veggie but i am not sure what kind and if I have to cook it first or not.

thank you in advance

Betta became a picky eater after trying brine shrimp?

My betta used to eat the round pellets without hesitation when I first brought him home. He got Ich and wouldn’t eat so I tried giving him freeze dried brine shrimp. He LOVED them. Now that’s all he’ll eat. He won’t even touch the round pellets anymore. Should I mix up his diet or are brine shrimp ok to feed everyday??
