Heater Recommendation

mraafat · 01/22/2006, 09:14 PM

We are in the process of setting up a nice 120g reef tank, and wanted to know what people thought about heaters. Which ones would you recommend? I have my eye on Hagen tronics, or Pro Heat II Titanium. What are the recommendations? Will 200w be enough; as we will have halides that I am sure will add to the heat.

i have the Pro Heat II and have had no problems with it. You may want to buy two heaters and run them together.... just in case one fails. The little expense of an extra heater now could save hundreds later.

You want a 300w I would think for a 120g, I have a 300w in my 90g that kicks on a lot during the night, but not during the day since I have MH as well. I like tronics as well, but they do not go up to 300w, so the submersible EboJager are a very good choice.
