![]() More than enough heat for your tank unless it is being kept in a very cold place.
The 3 to 5 watt per gallon rule applies to small tanks, when you approach 100 gallons and up less watts per gallon are needed because the surface area to volume ratio is less. I use a 300 watt heater on my 120 and it is more than I need.

![]() Hey TJT,
If I might make a suggestion my daughter is into discus wow they are pretty but back to the point it might be safer to run to heaters on the tank just in case the unexpected happens. ________ buy herbalaire vaporizer Last edited by Leah; 01-20-2011 at 10:46 AM. |
