Heater Question: One or two heaters?
250 Gal tank + sump: How many Ebo Jager heaters and what Wattage?
Which one: 1x 300W 2x 200W 2x 150W Or a different suggestion? |

I'd go for two at least. That way if you have a failure, you'll at least have one working heater.

I know you have a bigger tank but I keep 2 running in my 50. One on each side and the temp stays pretty consistent throughout the whole tank
