Eli,

As someone who recently lost a whole tank due to a heater staying on I know what you are feeling.

In all honesty I have to agree with waht was said in the otehr thread. Go for multiple small heaters. One big one will nuke your tank.

On a better note.. you can get it going again. I did. [img]smile.gif[/img] :D

Any help I can give you go ahead and ask.

Sorry to hear about your disaster - but I look forward to seeing how you bounce back from this.

I'm sure many in this area will be offering their support and help.
