Hello I have ich in one of my tanks and I can’t get the water to 86 degrees.

I have used marineland heater with dial setting and the water only ever went up to 82-84. I’m now using a fluVal 30 gallon 100w heater for the 20 gallon tank. I set it up last night and it’s only on 82 degrees.

I just added another marine land heater to the aquarium but the water is still on 82 degrees.
i have two filters and the heaters are positions against the current of both filters on both end of the tank.

please I need advice, my tank isn’t heating up and I’m so worried about ich. My ich treatment won’t be here until Tuesday.

You could try getting a significantly stronger heater, perhaps 200w. 100w really isn't anything crazy for a 20 gallon.
