![]() What is your preference on heaters, lets see which is the most commonly used.
Pro's - Con's what's your opinion. I'll start it off, I a 200 watt Via Aqua titanium in my 50g sump &90 DT and a Eheim jager 125 watt back up. 100 watt Eheim jager in my 33 g frag tank. I find Eheim is the best all around glass heater, reasons German made quality, you can recalibrate them, thicker glass tube, accuracy. I have a Via Aqua titanium, wanted to try one, remote sensor, digital control and seems accurate. Your thoughts and opinions now. ![]()

![]() I've used Jager's going on 25 years, for all the reasons you pointed out. Probably will never switch.

![]() I have about 12 Jagers from 100-300W and they all vary around 5-10 years old. I just recently lost one (quit heating) and that's the first Jager I've ever lost. I also have about 6 VisiTherm 25 & 50W heaters. They have been performing just as well.

![]() I've always used Jäger but switched to Finnex about a year ago. No problems with either. |

![]() Looks like Jager is very popular, does anyone run heaters with a controller or just use the on board stat?

![]() I have my heater (very old brand) running off my controller. It operates within a range, using its own thermo switch. But would never trust a heater on its own, no matter what brand.
