Looking to get some input on the Finnex HMO Heater with Digital LED Controller. Anybody currently running one of these on their reef thank? I'm thinking about purchasing the 200w or the 150W for a 60gallon build. Do you think the 150w would be enough?

The last Finnex I used had the analog dial controller on the cord. the Controller Died within a year. Cut it off and wired it direct to the plug since I use a RKE to control everything anyways.

The last two Finnex heaters I had broke. I caught the first one before it cooked my tank, the second heater went bad while I was on vacation, thankfully it was being used to keep live rock heated, it didn't overheat, it split open and literally cooked my Live Rock. I will never buy a Finnex heater again.
