Hi all,
It gets fairly cold at night (Well, by Los Angeles standards...) and my apartment doesn't hold heat well, so the heaters on my tanks struggle to maintain temperature. I was thinking of going to Petco or Petsmart today to get a secondary heater for each tank, so the main one doesn't have to work so hard.
So, what wattage should I get? Same as the heaters already in the tank? Half-strength?
And, any experience with Aqueon heaters? That seems to be the main brand in both places.
Thanks!
