brandonv26 said:its so confusing deciding what to pick lol I have read some posts that say use a 100w on a 55g because even though it will take longer to heat it, once its heated if for example the heater doesnt shut off, the 100w wont overheat your tank or atleast not within a day whereas a 200w or 250w could overheat your aquarium in the time you leave for and come home from work. Then once I determine sizing I need to determine a manufacturer.
Any other comments/opinions on this? I appreciate the input that I've gotten I just like more than one opinion lol
