Rockerpeller Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 i run 2 150w heaters in my 4foot. more reliable if 1 fails and less plugs taken up running 3 100w heaters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianab Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 I have a 300w Jager in my 4ft tank, seems to do the job fine and they are a good quality heater. 2 x 150 will cost a little more, but does give you a backup in case one fails.

Cheers Ian I have found that two heaters, one at each end in a tank that size heat more evenly. i have two 150 watt heaters in my 1000mm tank. i would consider putting two 200 watt units in there.
