heater cover?

[Irbanjaxed]

im getting a ray and i read that you should have a heater cover because the rays can suffer burns because they are so sensitive .... what could i use that wont disrupt the heating of my tank ,,, would a pvc
pipe work?

I know you can get plastic heater guards, you might try to find one.

i just googled "aquarium heater guard" and i found a couple of items that might work

If you have a cannister filter you can put it in the return line with a heater housing.

Lifeguard makes an external housing to put inline too.

Not if you spray paint the pvc black.
