I've just broke another glass on, so I'm going to the stick on type.
just wondered what everyone else uses.
 
I use the internal glass ones.

Just removed my external stick-on from mt 29g. I wasn't very accurate after I tested it with 3 different glass ones.

How do tou keep breaking them danio? :dunno:
 
The external stick on ones go bad after a while. I switched to a hang on, internal glass style and like it, old fashioned but reliable and accurate.

When I use my mag cleaner, you've only got to touch it and it breaks :(
 
i have an extremly accurite glass mercury kodak thermometer used for photography chemicals. it is encased in thick stainless steel and near indestructable.
 
i use a lgass one nicked from a school science lab :rolleyes: there are two stick-on ones on my tank as well tht have been there for three years and are totally wrecked, one of them constantly reads 30, the other 27, i keep meaning to take them off but i never do. *sigh*
 
Half of mine are external stick-on ones, and the other half are metal internal ones.
 
external on all the tanks and 2 glass internals that swap tanks regularly (and go in buckets for water changes.

I also have an expensive digital probe one that gets used from time to time...

Mine was dead when I took it off too. :/

The metal hang-on is accurate, but I couldn't close any of my hoods all the way.
I would always remember to remove it during cleaning right after I knocked it off.
 
I use the internal ones for all my tank. It's not because I like them or anything it's just what I got with all my tank pakages...hehe. They're good anyway.
