I recommend Aquatop Titanium heaters. I am currently running to and have been for around 6 months and I love them. They have an independent thermostat which you can place away from the heater for more accurate temperature. Once you dial in the digital controller and compare to thermometer �� it’s set and forget.

I think no heater is truly accurate. That being said I have found a +/- 1 degree and have them set for 80 degrees right now. The actual temperature confirmed by 3 different thermometers works out to be 79.1 degrees. I have not observed t go over the 80 degree threshold. I previously had the eheim Jager heaters (longest heaters ever) and could not keep them consistent.

Swapped them out with the Aquatop titanium’s and haven’t had an issue. I have the eheim heaters heating my saltwater in a brute

Neo therm heaters at .5degree close they are very good and small. Bit of a price tag but with mine in my 20 gallon keeps the temp at a constant 78
