Heater Question

[montyII]

Would it be OK to use a 75W heater rated for tanks 60-100L in a 40L tank? Or would it overheat it?

Thanks.

It would overheat it, or at least be very difficult to get 24,25,26C settings etc

Thanks for the quick reply!

I think I'll get the smaller one then. I want it for a breeding tank so I don't want to muck around with temperatures.

Cheers.
