heater for a 210g

[moneygetter1]

Is the heater in the tank or in the sump? If in the tank, where is it placed & is it the only one? 210gl is a lot of water to be heated by a single 250w heater. At 4w or 5w per gl you need a total of 840w / 1050w to efficiently heat & maintain a set temp. (depending on avg. rm. temp.) I'm thinking (3) 300w in the tank (one in ea. corner & one ctr. of a 6' or 8' tank) or maybe placed in the sump to heat it before going to the main tank might work better. JMHO Good luck, "T"

the heater is actually in my other tank

i put one jager in my 125g, and the water was pretty hot so i turned it off

Well if you want just one heater, you should look here, but be ready to spend the big bucks. Otherwise, I'd recommend 2 ebo-jager 250 watt heaters.

no need to get one that expensive....you can get a finnex titanium up for 800 watts which is only 50 bucks
