What heater would you guys recommend for a 180 gallon? I'll have it in a plastic sump, so it needs to be protected from melting the plastic, prefreally with a shield

i use hydor...no issues thus far. make a pvc sleeve for it, no worries on the acrylic melting
I run two of those on my 200. One is set for the actual temp I want, the other is set 4 degrees below that. They are great heaters and I haven't had any problems. I love the fact that they come with shield pre-installed. If you do buy them, get a separate thermometer. They tend to be about 3 degrees low. For example, I have mine set to 83, and that gives me a stable temp of 80. I can also say that the temp never fluctuates more than .3 degrees, another good point.
