31.9°C?! But I'm too broke to get a chiller. This is at Singapore at the afternoon. My tank is Infront of the window.

Hi everyone. I’m experiencing condensation above the hose clamp where the tubing connects to my Hydor inline canister filter heater. The clamp is tightened, but moisture still forms. There aren’t any leaks from it. I've checked the tubing and fitting, both seem fine. Is this normal. Thanks!

Help! I just set up a tank less than a week ago with 5 female mollies. I’m new to this but it’s important to me that my fish are happy and healthy. One of my mollies seems off. She doesn’t swim around and stays in the top corner near the heater. My other 4 mollies seem fine and swim around. At...

I had a betta in a 5 gallon, with heater and filter. The other day I realized she was acting really lethargic. I realized her heater wasn't working like it was supposed to. So, since this was an emergency situation, I took the heater from my other tank to place it in her tank, so she didn't...

So last night I had to wrap the tank with towels because the apt heat was spotty and the tank heater was on nonstop. Thankfully it kept up, didn't let the temp drop below 74 in the tank. The maintenance people seem to have fixed the heat issue in the building today. I have a silicone rubber...

So I got home today and the heater in my tank was broken in half. I immediately took it out of the tank and went and bought a new one. I was just wondering if there's any issues that may have caused. All the fish are acting fine but there was what it looked like a chemical buildup, brown foam...

I have a 150L tank that I need to bring up to 30 degrees because of ich. The heater in it was included when I bought the tank, it's a SuperFish one. Unfortunately I can't get higher than 28 degrees.

I have been looking at heaters for when I set up my 90 gallon semi aggressive tank. I want one that will be consistent and stable for 79°F. I prefer adjustable heaters and am looking at 300 Watts. Brands I have looked at are Aquatop, Aqueon Pro series, Fluval, and Eheim. Are there any real...

I've lost a lot of fish in two days -19 or 20. I just want to know if anybody else agrees with me so others can learn from my mistakes. I have two expensive water heaters with thermometers. In fact you set the heater with the thermometer. Two of my tanks have these because I was sick of...

I'm looking for some good inline heaters for my 110 gallon fish tank. The inline heater I got orginally isn't working properly. So I am willing to listen to any suggestions on other inline heaters as I do not want to crowd the tank with heaters. It is a rather tall tank but I am going to have...

I need some opinions on what to do regarding my aquarium heater. I have a 3.5 gallon tank and the Aqueon 10W mini heater. My thermometer (which I’m not sure I fully trust, but anyway) says that when I leave the heater plugged in the water gets up to about 83 degrees Fahrenheit. It stays...

So a little bit of background first. I'm in college and I live in the dorms. A neighbor on my floor bought six male guppies and two mystery snails, and stuck them all in a 2.5 gal without heat/filter/air, and without proper bacteria supplement and tap water purifier. Two guppies died. After...

I've just bought a male betta and he was settling in well to my ten gallon, when about 3 hours in, there started to be trouble with the heater. It started turning off and not on again, and I kept having to manually turn it on every five minuites. I was worried because I know that the temperature...

The heater for my aquarium went out sometime last night and a few of my fish died. I have removed them from the tank already but what can I do to so my other fish don't die before I can get another heater for them. The tank has a few starfish, brittle stars, hermit crabs, and some damselfish...

Hey guys I'll keep this brief. I'm starting an African Cichlid tank in a 29 gallon. I attached the heater to the back-side of the tank, with the suction cups on either side of the heater. A week later, I look at the heater's instructions more thoroughly and realize the first instruction says...

Hi All, Newbie to the forum here, go easy ;) Yes I made the same silly mistake a lot of people do and got myself a 30L Biorb. It's a Biorb Life though, so not quite as bad as the orb ones, or so I hear. I have one Betta and 5 Nerite snails. In some respects all seems to be going well, Sashimi...

Hello all!   So I bought a heater today to help nurse a sick Betta to health, and the heater I bought is a Marina Submersible heater, 25w. I noticed at the store that all of those heaters seemed to have some type of padding in the bottom where the actual heating area is. Im guessing its for...

Hi, I have purchased the Rio Juwel 400 and it comes with a 300 watt heater. It is a 450L tank and despite the fact that the 300W heater it comes with it is advertised as being able to do: "UP TO 450L" I am conscious that that might be slightly exaggerated. Also looking around on the web it...
