So I have a set up that in sure works, I'm waiting for my tank thermometer to get here.

Anyways the heater I got has no indication of what the heat is set at. Kind of frustrating. It was given to me and it has no name or heat setting on it, obviously no instructions. So I'd like to get a new heater. Luckily I only have some feeder guppies in there now as its cycling but I'll be getting cherry shrimp soon and want to take good care of them.

Specs :
Id like it to be at 74°
Room temp 64°(now that its winter)
Tank size 15gallon
 
Oops lol I copied and pasted this from another post and didn't copy the last part @_o

What wattage do I need for a new heater is if I need about a 10°f temp change?
Any good easy to use heaters you would recommend?
 
The rule is usually 1 watt per liter of water, but i would go for a 100watt if i were you, so you can heat all you're water:)
 
Just to get an even temp all over?
Alright thank you!
