I'm really glad the site was helpful. The 2 gallon is perfectly OK, but he will be happier in the 5 gallon. They both need to be heated, too (its snowing here... really reminds me about the heating issue). If you're going to keep the 5 gallon, its definitely worth the time to figure out how to clean the filter. Do you know what kind of filter it is? For example, is it a clear plastic box that sits in the corner, or does it hang off the back side of the tank and has an intake tube that pulls the water up into it?. If you can find out the manufacturer & the model number (or even the model series), I'll look around and see if I can't find instructions on how to clean it. Hi Jade.
