Water in a tank is typically heated through a heating element, which can be electric or gas-powered. In electric water heaters, an immersed heating element heats the water directly, while gas water heaters use a burner located below the tank to heat the water. The heated water rises to the top of the tank, where it can be accessed for use. Some systems, like heat pumps, extract heat from the surrounding air to warm the water more efficiently.

Why water is generally heated from the bottom?
Warm anything, air or water will rise. Cold water is put at the bottom of the tank through a tube inside the tank. The water is heated and rises and is taken out of the top. The inside of the heater is open, it is just a hollow tube. That is why the hot water gets slowly colder, more cold water is being mixed with the hot in the tank.

How do you change fish water?
I gently syphon the water out from the bottom of the tank into a bucket, thereby removing the mulm and poo that have accumulated on the bottom of the tank.
