Heater recommendations for a 120g

[ronj]

i have had really bad luck with my heaters lately... what is a good heater for a 120g???

Ive had two 250w ebo jagers on my 120 for near two years without a problem.

i have one of those now.. i am looking for something else.

OK, Ive seen the Stealth heaters get talked about the most in the last year or so.

Um.. you live in Florida!!! Do you really NEED one?????


LOL.. Seriously.. I live in Washington State, and have a 120 gallon, and I dont have a heater at all. The lights, and pumps put out enough heat on thier own to keep it warm. In fact... I installed a fan to keep things cooler, cause it was getting to hot. (although I am running 6 vho's on an enclosed hood.. that would probably be a BIG part of the heat!)

Just wondering.

I don't think anyone makes a good reliable heater in the industry, all I can suggest that no matter what brand of heater you use, you should use some kind of temperature controller to shut it down when it fails and sticks on, best $150 you can spend IMHO

Trido, now that i think about it, my heater never came on when i had my 125g...it did stay warm enough during the summer...i will be using my Mag12 as a return pump again on my new 120g.. i think the heat from that thing always kept the temp up.. i still want to have some sort of heater in there just in case
