Hello, getting back into marine aquariums after a short stint (~1.5 years) in a 36ish cube about 8-10 years ago. This time around I picked up a used 50 gal aio lagoon w APS stand and trying to piece together a complete system.
Believe it or not, I'm having a hard time finding a heater that will work with this. There is a false floor on both sides in the filtration area that I want to place 2 heaters, one in each compartment ( the ones just off center) but the floor to the spill off wall leading to center return chamber is only 9.25" and I can't find anything 100w or larger that will sit properly to the minimum depth line found on heaters. I dont want to place it into center chamber for safety reasons as the water level could drop below the minimum line and potentially cause breakage in heater. Any help would be great.
