i use one in my 20 long reef and i like them... easy to hook up an intake or powerhead too and they keep the tank always at the right temp and they're very easy to set
True (great product actually) I just couldnt wait the time it would take to order one. Store prices are through the roof. This is my only tank that does not have a stealth and it has had two heaters break (both submersible good units) I run 2 200 watt stealths and a 100 watt and I have a 25 watt on a 5 gallon loldmopar74;2852274; said:

yep, i tried it out because i wasnt about to pay mad $$$ for a stealth from the lfs, and needed a heater without wait. good heater so far, bout a year.
LOVE The rena heaters, i have them on all my tanks i love them soo much.
they're even better if you utilize them as intakes on your filters. but its not necessary.
i had lots of problems with stealths in the past, as well as elites, and the aqua clear was the worst. They were all positioned close to the intakes on the filters to maximize the amount of water flowing around them
went to rena and never looked back, they are expensive, but worth it. What you set them at is what they stay at within one degree, its not like other ones where they are 2-3 degrees different. my tanks are always within about .7 degrees to what they are supposed to be, no matter the temperature in the room.
i know it sounds cheezy, but these heaters are the best. in my opinion.
