Temp in the house is 70. What is a good heater to use?

Eheim Jäger is reliable but any heater will work

My all glass aquarium heater got its beat last night! How many watts should I get for my 26 gallon?

Cobalt aquatics has a new heater out made of plastic it's Shatterprof and unbreakable. Mr saltwater tv just reviewed it

Called the neo-therm

you only need about 3-5 watts per gallon here in texas, and its often best to split the wattage across two heaters but most people dont bother to take that precaution. if only using one and its going into a SW tank with rocks, i would recommmend any of the unbreakable Ti types. as far as brands i mainly use eheim/ebo-jager glass types or inline hydor types.

Any heater will work 75-100W is all you need. Not sure that the AC had anything to do with it. With the lights, pumps, and etc the tank probably will never get to that low of a temp and it would be a slow decline that they could adjust to anyways. I have a nano tank in my sons room with no heater and the lights are LEDs so no real heat and its still 2 degrees above ambient and the house is set at 71 at night.

I have a 26 gallon bow front with a CPR Refugium. Should I go with the 100 watt or 150 watt?

I'd go with the 100w neo therm go read th reviews about it I can't wait for the 200 w to come out

[Johnsbra123]

If I buy the neo therm, will it hold it's value because I don't want to blow 72$ on a heater that will be worth 20$ after one use?

[cu0ngsayz]

all aquarium supplies don't hold value, Beside the eco vortechs. If you're worried about the value of the equipment is down the road you're in the wrong hobby

Go and buy an eheim,or a Aqueon I have 2 Aqueon. And I love it .

[johnnymisty]

Fluvals are good and fishland has some cheap ones that work good don't know brand but I've used one for as year Moe with no problems cost $20 for a 200 watt I believe

My mother put the house at 70 degrees, almost wiped out all of my fish! What's the best heater? I have to buy it today.

I ain't skimping out on these so shoot me a heater that keeps the temp up and perfect for sw

Stupid parent put the the house at 70?
You should try outdoor, it's warmer most of the time. (for you that is)

From the reviews I've read this new neo therm is supposed to be pretty awesome. Only promblem right now is that they hadn't made the 150 and 200 watt yet
