LONDAFISH Final Thoughts

"No issues."

It took me a few days slowly turning the dial up to finally get it where I wanted. The bonus digital thermometer it came with has been super helpful, and is accurate. The line is there due to regulations in certain countries. I have it set to 81F to get a 77F water temp. The cover over the heating tubes is great, the turtles claws can't damage the tube. The temperatures are pretty accurate. I dont know, and havent tried just yet.

"The seller was wonderful."

I think it works well to not stand out like other heaters. If the water runs low or air gets in the heater shuts off. I have only had minor problems with the suction cups.

This is a powerful heater that holds temperature very well.

Fluval A782 Final Thoughts

"5 or even."

I will be ordering more of these in the future. I will definitely be buying another one for my other tanks at bigger one. It does blend well in some setups and may look bulky in others. We would consider a replacement and then we would return the defective unit. Thanks for the great customer service! Pressing and holding the button for 5 seconds changes it from F to C readouts. My marina heater takes a few hours.

But my guys don't read them and don't listen! --The heater itself is a bit shorter if your tank is a short one. 210 gallon ones and one 90 gallon bow front tank. This this is amazing and is worth the money. I tested it by unplugging and replugging it. I had a thermometer on opposite side of tank and the heater was dead on true.

Soyon Final Thoughts

"Long heater."

It took me only two tries to get it to the correct temperature. Once attached to the tank wall I've had no issues with it coming off. You program it for temperature you want your tank to be. The heater protector was very heavy plastic and slim lined which is great. I adjusted the set temperature a little lower to be more in the range I wanted. But I am single and don't have to worry about this. It is a bonus that the heater is titanium.

"Love this heater!"

My marina heater takes a few hours. They shipped us the upgraded version that also heats! And I get to keep the first one I bought! Takes a little while to drop the temps if it is hot in the garage. The heater is super thin and the reflective surface is interesting. I am very happy with this purchase. I like the fact that it comes with a digital thermometer.

"My fish is very content."

Come on Fluval, expect better from you. The line is there due to regulations in certain countries. I noticed my old hygger heater beginning to fail and my wife ordered this one. I got the 200W variant for my 54 gallon corner tank that's housing goldfish. Two inches above that is a waterline for maximum. Temperature is slightly off by running a little warmer. The setting always stayed the same.

"Yes, you read that right."

I use a 50 for a 5 gal and a 10 gal tank. It would stick out of my 30 g wide tank if I were to put it vertical. I use a 50 for a 5 gal and a 10 gal tank. It is a bonus that the heater is titanium. --Temperature adjustment labeling is on top rather than on the rod. But I am single and don't have to worry about this.

"I bought the 7."

It is a bonus that the heater is titanium. I use a 50 for a 5 gal and a 10 gal tank. Sometimes it gets outside of it's ability to cool but only within a few degrees. I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a new unit in less than a week! But my guys don't read them and don't listen! It took about an hour to reach 80f, which is fairly quick. I used to try those other cheap heaters sold on amazon.
