Hi all!
Hate to be a bother, but I have bought a new Hydor Theo heater. They didn’t have a 25 watt heater and they so sent me a 50 watt. I set it to 27 ish Celsius and I came back home to see my thermometer saying tank water to be above 30 C! Tank glass was actually warm. What to do? I unplugged it. It wasn’t stuck on at all, looks like it heated the tank to the set temperature, then when the temperature dropped it nuked, turned off, temp dropped and nuked again. I will never put my hands on it again, never again, just disappointed
Now I have to look for a new heater that is reliable and won’t bake my little guy, yes, my fighter.
I found these ones with good reviews:
I will need opinions on these heaters, though I heard thousands of very good opinion on the fluval e one.
Thank you!
