Hi all,

What heater would you recommend for a Fluval Spec V? Twenty-five to fifty watts, and I'd like it to fit in the back pump chamber, so it needs to be small.

If you have a Spec V, what do you use? :confused:
 
I've pretty much settled on a Cobalt neo-therm 50-watt. A bit powerful for a 5G tank, but my apartment can get cold in the winter, so the extra wattage will be handy. And I know this will fit in the pump chamber easily.
 
Thanks for the recommendations. Doing some more research into the Neo-Therms, they seem to fail --as in explode :eek: -- far too often for my comfort. Reviews complaining of that I read were as recent as this year. So, I'm going to take a second look at the Hydor and Aqueon. (y)
