Unless you're using Ozone, it is of little to no benefit.

I use one.

My tank sits around 330-350. Slowly raises as time for a water change rolls around, and drops after the water has changed.

Can also be a good indicator if something has died in the tank...

If you do not have one, its not something I'd spend money on. I have one and do not use it.
