heater

Hey everyone! I am still in the research phase in preparation for my very first tank and am a little overwhelmed with how to set up a relatively reliable heating system without spending more than $125 or so on heating. The tank will be 25 gallons, so 100w heating requirement. In adding layers...

I have a heater attached to an Ink Bird controller. Do you recommend setting the heater itself at 78 and the Ink Bird at 80 so the temp is maintained by the internal heater mechanism with the Ink Bird as backup or vice versa (Ink Bird at 78, heater at 80 to save heater cycles)? Thanks.

Is this a bad idea to have rock holding down the heater? Also are these heaters good for reef tanks?

I have a 75W Eheim Jager heater coupled with an Inkbird controller - its been working fine for the last 7-8 Months - but I woke up this morning to the Inkbird alarm saying it got up to 80 degrees when it has never done that before (usually dialed in between 78-79). About an hour ago I turned...

I have an Inkbird 306A controlling two 150w heaters. Occasionally the Inkbird will show an "Abnormal" alarm (at normal temperature-78F) and will cut power to the heaters, which can drop the temp of my tank about 2-degrees F overnight. The only way to reset the Inkbird's alarm is by cycling the...

I have an 8 foot long 310 gallon aquarium with an IceCap 48XL sump. I bought two eheim jager heaters for it (300w & 250w). I’m placing the 250w either in the skimmer or the refugium section of the sump and was thinking to put the 300w inside the overflow box to keep a clean look inside of the...

Hi, I’m starting my journey breeding clownfish. I will have three pairs (I’d start with one, but I already have three unpaired female clownfish so why not?). If each pair lays twice a month, I’ll reasonably need 6 fry tanks. I’m going to divide a 55 gal into 6 sections that are ~9.5 gallons...

Bought two new Ehiem Trutemps 100w for my 65 gal. To replace my old ones that were stuck in the on position. And either I’m calibrating them wrong or I have the worst luck because these new ones also won’t shut off. I’m waiting on my heater controller but in the mean time I decided to leave one...

Hi guys, This is my first post here :). Excited to be a part of the community. This evo is my first saltwater tank in about 10 years. I just got cycled, did a large water change and am ordering fish tomorrow! I haven't installed my skimmer yet, but I moved my m50 heater to the return chamber...

Hi everyone! Its getting to that very short time of year where I need to figure out a good heater for my 29 gal BioCube (I say this because I live in Florida, so not much need for one outside of maybe 3 months out of the year so I've been putting off getting one). I'm also in the market for an...

I am in the process of setting up a 120 gallon rimless reef tank and had the following questions for the fellow reefers. 1) What kind of foam would you recommend to go underneath this rimless tank?. 2) I was planning to use a 40 gallon breeder as the sump. Please let me know whether this is a...
