how to remove velcro from aquarium?

It was a hermit crab terrarium but I am turning it into a betta aquarium but there's a spot where the thermometer would go, and I want to either remove it or Maybe just keep it out of the water. (It's about an inch away from the top of the tank.)

Also are blood worms necessary for bettas, or just a treat?

And what is a good temp. For female bettas?

And what is there fav live plant.

(FYI my tank is a 5 gal)

    A razor-blade scraper is usually best for getting such things off the tank.

    If it's a glass tank, it's fairly easy to scrape off the Velcro.

    If it's a plastic tank, a delicate touch will be required to remove it without cutting or scratching the tank.

    Most bettas like bloodworms, but many other foods are equally suitable for bettas.

    Bettas come from warm waters. About 80 to 85 F is best for both female and male bettas.

    Bettas seem to like planted tanks. The kind of plant doesn't matter much. Bettas are carnivores; they don't eat plants.

    Peel it off and use a citrus based organic cleaner, goo gone for example. Don't use chemical cleaners ( like goof off) where its possible for your tank to "absorb" it
