Do you think a 150 W jager would be enough to heat a 65 gallons tank (36*18*24); the company says it can heat tanks up to 79 gallons, but I'm still not convinced.
 
I use a 200w ebo jager on mine, and its one of the newer models rated for a higher tank volume than the older ones.

I do use one of the new 150w ebos on a 50g and its fine, so it might be okay.

the new models are rated for higher volumes than their older siblings lol

but I still go by 3w per gallon approximately no matter what they say :)
 
What is the surrounding room temperature? I use a 50W on a 300g tank without any problem, mainly because I'm in asia. Its hot here.
 
Yes it would be enough.
