Heater capacity

[fkshiu]

The general rule of thumb is about 4W to 5W/gallon for most rooms.

Here's a more detailed decription: http://www.beananimal.com/articles/a...-to-know!.aspx

Titanium heaters work the same as glass ones. They're simply less likely to be damaged because they're not made out of glass. Plus it's cool to say that you've got a TITANTIUM piece of equipment.

They are still subject to sticking like glass heaters so a good quality external controller is the safest bet if you will be keeping very valuable livestock.

hey I run 3 250ws on my 235ish sys I should probably get one more but spring is coming

I only use 2 300w on my 300gal but then it is in a small enclosed room that maintains the temp quite well. I am using a Medusa temp controller and I rarely see the heaters on. Temp runs a pretty consistent 77.8deg.
