Heater question

[Ottermus]

Does it matter if a fake plant or air hose etc touches the heater??

Depends what's the wattage

I've no idea it's heating a 55g

I'd steer away from that if possible. Probably wouldn't cause too much damage

Hello Ott...

The heater doesn't get hot enough to melt anything. If it did, your fish wouldn't be able to live in hot water. So, I wouldn't worry about anything plastic touching the heater.
