Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I just purchased this cheaply priced heater from a LFS last night. It appears to be submersable, and has no clamp like the old clamp-to-the-frame type heaters. It does include 2 suction cups and brackets, already attached. The written instructions (all English!) direct you not to allow the controller to be submerged or exposed to moisture(!). And the graphic illustrations show all below-water-level installations depicted as not safe. But I have seen these heaters labelled as "submersable" on the internet. I'm playing it safe by attaching this heater vertically, with the "controller" exposed above the water line of my 20 gal.x.h. tank. There's not much room between the controller and the aquarium's glass top. Your advise would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!
