i bought my tank and stand 3 weeks ago. it came with a filter and a heater. i haven't needed to use my heater yet, but today my water temp dropped to about 76 degrees so i plugged in my heater and set it for 79 degrees.
a few hours later, i checked and my temp was at 85??? isn't it supposed to automatically turn off once it reaches 79? does this sound like a faulty heater? it's an All Glass American brand by the way. good thing i don't have any livestock, for i'm in the process of cycling my tank. i hope it doesn't affect my LR in any way. will it?
