75 gallon new build I picked up a 525gph polar vortex canister filter because I liked the power for the price. (Plan on packing it full of high end media from Seachem.) The next thing I would like to figure out is how to have an external heating system. The guy at the aquarium shop handed me a...

I know two smaller heaters are usually recommended for a larger tank. I'd like to get a brand with a remote thermostat as it just seems easier to manage. Any recommendations? TIA, Roy

I have been hearing and reading about more and more heater malfunctions and am really starting to consider hooking up thermostats to all my heaters. I'm kinda unsure about which work well and whether they work with all heaters. I really don't want to spend over $50-$75 per tank and was hoping to...

I know I want an Aqueon Pro but I'm not sure if I should get 150w or 200w. My tank is 37g (probably more like 38 accounting for extra water flowing thru canister filter). Ambient temp of the room its in is 68-70 degrees, maybe a little warmer in summer. I want to keep the tank between 80-82.
