Cheesejawa Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Is the rule for heaters 1.5 watts per litre or 1 watt per litre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JK Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 is there any problem going higher than this? say a 300watt heater in a 150ltr tank or would it just give a better heat consistency as long as set at the correct temp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianab Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 Only a problem if the heater sticks in the ON position If the heater is sized right there is a chance that you will notice the fish looking a bit stressed, check the temp and fix the problem before they cook. BEST option is 2 smaller heaters, if one fails on it shouldn't cook the tank, and if one fails off, the other one will stop the fish from freezing.
