exactly. I'm in north texas and we get pretty cold on occasion. just tossing around ideas...

if you setup that tub make shure to put foam under it. the concrete floor will suck the heat right outta it.

well a little snooping around got me the brand "finnex" and turns out their crap, this is one of multiple conversations on finnex heaters from a google search of finnex heaters- http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1053364&perpage=25&pagenumber=1

think i'll just get a hydor inline 300w to go along with my stealths.

If you are looking for titanium heaters I can recommend BioTherms by AquaMedic.

They make them up to 1000 watts. They may not be top of the line but I have nothing but good things to say about them.

Haven't used the ones you described, but had a really bad experience with Jalli ("the heater with a 48 hour lifespan"). If you are looking for a higher wattage titanium heater, I can recommend Catalina Aquarium titanium heaters without hesitation. These are available from ebay or, I believe they have their own website. I have used these for approx. 2 years without any failure and they are very accurate. Also, the temp probe is built into the heater unit, so you don't have to string a separate probe.
