buy a chiller they even better than a controller well mine is atleast if the temp drops the chiller turns the heater on if it get too hot the chiller cools it down

I just got the Finnex controler and 500w element seems to work great. Has auto shut off if it gets to high or if the element is exposed to air. and has an alarm if the temp get to low or high past the alarm set points and shuts off if to high. any one elce have experiance with this?

The Reef Keeper 2 from Digital Aquatics is $257 on bulkreefsupply.com and will handle heaters, chiller/fan and about a dozen other things. Has anyone seen any reviews for these? Sounds like a great deal to me if it works well.

The RK2 is pretty popular, seems to be the odd bug but gets addressed (RC forum).
