Heater for a 20g

[moss2k]

What wattage do I need for my 20g (high)? :help:

Thanks in advance!

[Draal5]

100w is all that is required

[moss2k]

thanks Draal.

any recommendations? Looking at Visi-Therm stealth

[msjinkzd]

i use the visi-therms, they are my preferred choice.

[moss2k]

any other recommendations in case its out of stock?

[Draal5]

I agree visi-therms seem to be the majorities opinion to be the best I just started using them.

Best price is petsmart online print the online price and bring it to their store they will match that price

[moss2k]

Draal, that's why my plan is. Just want to see what could be a 2nd option in case its sold out. I have to get one as soon as I get off of work. Mine failed sometime last night.

I had a 100 watt in my 20..I swapped it for a 75 stealth..the tank was very difficult to stabilize..the 75 w stealth is working great now.
generally a 100 watt is the suggested wattage for a 20 tho.

i use the tetra submersible heaters. pre-set and compact; they do a fine job in my place, which is in buffalo in winter on the floor of an apartment seated on a concrete slab. i highly recommend them. also, they're cheap too!

[Mgamer20o0]

i would never get a pre set heater. never know when you want to lower or up the temp.
