Tank heat

[Akoni68]

Hey all. Just joined in. Question for anyone. I just bought a new 56 g tank and new heater for up to 60 g. I have discus, so need the temp in the low 80s and can't get it past 75. I have a second heater in my other tank that I was thinking of adding to boost the temp. Any thoughts?

Then what will keep the other tank warm? You should only need like a 220 watt heater, buy another imo. Taking the heat out of the other will just cause more problems, I'm sure.

Oops, I should have mentioned, it's a transfer tank. The discus are going into a bigger home.
