About this deal

As everyone’s homes and electricity usage are different, this is a hard question to answer definitively. So, we turned to Joanna O’Loan, the Energy Saving Trust’s Knowledge Manager, for an expert opinion.

Yes, there are instances where you can put a 20-gallon heater in a 10-gallon tank. Such instances would be having your tank set up in a cold environment. There are many different types of aquarium heaters, and you may feel overwhelmed by the many options available. However, they can be broadly categorized into two main types of heaters, in-tank heaters and in-line heaters. In-Tank Aquarium HeatersEasy to read temperature settings– can you easily tell what temperature you’re setting the heater on? Out of the heaters I tested, it was the set-it-and-forget-it model. I really like its built-in heater guard, making it a safe and reliable heater you can count on. But honestly, all of the good points of this heater far outweigh any negatives. This is my top choice out of all the heaters I tried for this experiment. I highly recommend it. The most powerful aquarium heater from Hydor's Theo range that we sell is this 100W aquarium heater, capable of heating aquariums from 50 - 100 litres capacity in a safe and precise fashion. Adjustable heaters: TUV and GS certified, the Juwel adjustable heater meet the highest standards in both functionality and efficiency.

The display also functions as an indicator light. During normal standby mode, the LCD screen will be green. If the temp has dropped below the set temp, it will turn blue to indicate that the heating element has turned on. If the temp becomes higher than what’s set, the LCD will turn red. The Breeze Foldable Fan fully charges in only 4.5 hours and provides a run time of up to 10 hours depending on fan speed setting. The temperature dial on this heater actually has two moving parts instead of one. The blue dial sets the temperature level of the heater, the red dial lets you calibrate the heater so that the temp you set the heater for matches the actual temp the heater warms the water to.

The term "horsepower" was developed by James Watt, who compared the output of steam engines to the power of draft horses based on how many times a horse could turn a mill wheel in an hour. Generally, oil-filled heaters are very quiet whereas convector heater also makes little noise. If you need silence, then portable fan heaters are the ones to avoid. Timer Setting However, an aquarium heater can become too hot. According to Newcomb and Company, here are several causes of a heater becoming hotter than usual:

The control unit turns power on and off to the heating unit. Without the control unit, the heating element would just stay on continuously and overheat the tank. Never use the heating unit without the control unit! Also, it would be wise to have a chiller installed in your tank if the environment where the tank is set up gets too hot. But, most of the fish in the aquarium hobby come from tropical regions that are much, much warmer than the average room temperature. They need temps anywhere from 75°F (24°C) to 82°F (28°C).Small aquarium heaters such as pad heaters and bowl heaters may not have a thermostat. They may also have a thermostat that is present to a certain range of temperature that is applicable for most tropical fish. Keep in mind that their temperature may not be adjustable. In addition, they are typically designed for smaller aquariums, so they will take much longer to heat up a tank. However, they are very simple to operate, and they can work well for smaller tanks. This is an in-tank submersible heater with an electronic thermostat. It is accurate to +/- 1 degree. These are common features in submersible heaters, but the main reason why we recommend this product is due to the durable thermal plastic shatterproof housing, along with its auto shut off safety feature. Since they offer it in multiple sizes, it will be suitable for a wide range of aquariums. The 50 watt option will be a good aquarium heater for a small 5-10 gallon tanks. The 300 watt option can support a 90 gallon tank, and multiple units can be installed for larger tanks. Aqueon offers a lifetime warranty for this product. Aquarium Heater Size Your fish tank heater is making noise possibly due to how it’s positioned in the tank, the heating element is turned on, the suction cups are too close to the coils of the heater, and there’s too much moisture in the heater itself. Different types of aquarium heaters are available, such as hanging/immersible heaters, substrate heaters, submersible heaters, in-line heaters, and filter heaters, and their suitability for different setups. No, not all fish tanks require a heater. If you intend to keep cold water fish such as goldfish, koi, or white cloud mountain minnows, you may not need an aquarium heater. This is especially true if you live in an area with mild winters.

All five heaters are 200 watts, to make sure that I was making a fair comparison between brands and models. I also installed them in the same part of the aquarium to make sure that each heater was exposed to the same amount of water flow in the aquarium. Calibration– how easy or difficult was it to get the heater set to a level that kept the water at 75°F (24°C)? Did I have to mess with the heater repeatedly to get the tank at the right temp or could I just set it and forget it?However, Aqueon offers a budget friendly option as well. The Aqueon Glass Heater does not have the plastic housing on the heater, but it is made of shatter resistant glass. While less expensive, this model also has a built-in auto shut off function that prevents the heater from overheating. Immersible Aquarium Heater Yes, most aquarium heaters are designed to be fully submersed underwater. However, not all heaters are designed to do so. For example, immersible heaters are designed to be hanged from the edge of the aquarium. These heaters can not be fully submerged underwater. It is important to refer to the manufacturers’ directions regarding installation specifics for each heater. Do fish tank heaters turn off automatically? Installing this heater takes a little more work because you have to mount all three parts. The temp probe and the heating unit are easy to suction cup to the inside of the tank. All around, if you want a simple old-school style tube heater that gets the job done, you can’t go wrong with this Fluval M200.
