Which Heater Should I Use?


Recommended Posts

So my tank is almost ready for water and one of the final things I need is a heater. I have looked at a lot of different options, but still can't decide. So i thought I'd ask you guys; what heater do you think I should use on my 60 gallon cube?

I use a Finnex HMX I got from Premium.  I run two for redundancy and they are controlled by my controller.  I use a Finnex HMA to warm my water before a change.  Only difference is the HMX controller has a digital display vs. the HMAs dial to set the temperature.  I've had them all for 1 1/2 years with no issue.  I like the rubberized coating on the heating element.

Finnex titanium is the only one I've never had an issue with.  

Previously I liked the Neotherm but after having one melt and burn under water I'm over them.  That smell took days to completely leave the house and about 40g of water and 2lbs of carbon later I had stress inhabitants for weeks.
