I had freshwater tanks for over fourteen years. Water temperature is about the same as saltwater. Fish like bettas and such don't need a heater in their tank and they are freshwater. I raised many fish, specialized in angelfish. The temp I always kept my tanks at was anywhere from 76 to 80 degrees. I guess it can go from 74-82 in my experience without hurting anything. I hope this helps.
