Just bought a tank.
I live in Northern California in the Sacramento Valley where the temperatures range from cold nights to warm days.
I want two heaters for the tank setup so I have an even heat distribution and some redundancy in case of a heater failure.
It is a 155g bow front glass tank.
I plan to use a fluval (FX5?) canister filter (or equivalent).
House is cold in winter, but I live alone, and I don't mind (I just pull on a sweater and make tea).
I don't us heat very often, although now I'll have to consider the fish, and might have to run the heat a bit more.
Which heaters seem to be the best when considering these factors?
Reliability
Power
Design
Value
What did I forget?
Thanks for your comments!
