The price is pretty low. Works good for me, maintains the temperature well.

------------------------------
55g - 1 oscar and 1 red zebra
30g(planted) - 3 Trilineatus cories, 3 peppered cories, 1 female betta, 2 gold rasboras, and snails.

46g Hex - 2 black neon tetras, 3 bloodfin tetras, 3 blue tetras, 2 snakeskin gouramis, 3 Agassizi corys, 2 von rio tetras ,and 1 pleco

I don't even trust this product in aquariums without fish. Never had good lucl with them and not that consistent with temp.

GOOD BACK UP HEATER

------------------------------

I was a little disappointed when I got it out of the packaging and things only got worse. The power cord is extremely short (had to get an extension cord to get it to reach our extension cord/pwr strip), it barely sits low enough in my full tank to cover the water line, and after I plugged it in it started clicking and I'm fairly certain the glass is broken as it appears to be leaking air.

29 gallon planted - moving and awaiting new life

After finding an extention cord and getting over the fact that the plastic on the heater mount was only slightly better than the plastic it came wrapped in, I set it in the water, to find that the tanks water level needed to be 1/4 below the top of the tank to reach the heaters "minimum water" line. after 6 hours of monitoring and adjusting the super loose and easy to overshoot thermostat I had a stable 82 degrees. Came home from work the next day and it was up to 88 degrees, with the light flickering on and off. turned it down just a hair, no more problems until I guess I looked at it wrong and it tried to cook my fish again. Now it helps fill my spare parts box. Spend the few extra dollars and get something that is submergable, and won't bake your fish overnight if you blow on it..
