I am using 2 visa-therm stealth heaters and i wanted to know where i can get covers for them or if i can make one , how do I?? Dont Want rays to get burned
 
a super cheaper version would be to place the heater in a pvc pipe with drilled holes in it to let the water circulate.

Yep :thumbsup:
 
I use a piece from a Marine Land Magnum filter. It is called the micron cartridge core. It's perforated plastic and is used to prevent the micron cartidge from collapsing. It floats so I placed it over the hot end of the heater and angled the heater so it wouldn't slide off.

I use the tronic covers and the PVC method. If u use the tronic heaters, the covers fit like a glove.
 
i dont think those heatergaurds fit the these heaters...i just bought some pvc to put around my 4 visi therm stealht heaters...im soakin them now..cant wait for my rays
but i would suggest this works good..just make sure you drill enough holes in it
