Best Heater For Your Aquarium

[BethK]

Hi All

What heater would be best for a 30ltr tank, would I be looking at a 50w? And what are the better quality ones out there, without breaking the bank.

Thanks

Beth

Yeah, one of the many different heating rules is 1 watt per litre. So 30 watts required, so go for 50.

You'll read horror stories in here about heaters going bad, but I wouldn't worry, as long as it's a known brand you should be fine. I use a fluval, and a hydor.

Going to go for one with a protective cover, seeing as my betta has a habit of wrapping himself around my currect 25w heater

Agree. 50w should be right. WD
