What type of heater do you guys recommended for a 55 gal long?
200 watts is all thats needed for a 55G from what I see and what my stealth says.
You didn't say what kind of filter you are going to be using. If you are getting a canister filter then I would recommend you look at getting a 300W inline external tank heater. That way the heater won't obstruct your view.
i had to have 600 watts total in my 40 gal to keep the temp at 78 last winter.
