Heaters

Got to looking and I accually have 5 of the recalled Stealth heaters. 2 I am using at this time. I called them and they are giving me a refund . Now the question. I need 2 heaters. I want the best I can get. Any Ideas on what brand is the best ? And what Type ? I need a 300 or 400 Watt.

Ebo-Jager; although there is some debate over whether they are submersible or not.

The better solution would be a titanium heater on a dedicated Ranco controller, or reef controller - a little more expensive though.

Cool Heaters?

I just replaced my heaters and picked up 2 Ebo-Jagers. I got them because alot of reefers here have been very satisfied with their performance but I guess any heater would last loger if not fully submerged.
