Heater recommendation

[nomad]

I'm in the market for a heater for my 135 gallons. Any model that you owned for awhile and you are happy with ? Any ones you found really disappointing, so I can avoid it ?
Thanks

I like Ebo (Eheim) Jagers. I use 2-250W on my 150

you could use 2-200W on a 125..

I like the Visi Therm Stealth heaters... have been using them for 5 years or so...

I aim for 2~3 W per gallon... more than that simply adds risk to your fish in the event of a heater getting stuck on...

There has been an ongoing debate for many years whether one or two heaters is a better idea. To my understanding... if using a single heater controller, two is the best way to go... if relying on the dial on the heater itself, one heater is a better idea (as it's extremely unlikely they will ever be set at the exact same temp).

Ebo Jager 250 watt x2 . Stealths look nice, but you don't know when they're on.

The jagers and stealths are really the best of the bunch, you can't go wrong with either.

I just picked up two 250w for under 20 bucks a piece

Personally I prefer titanium heaters but you definitely get a lot of bang for your buck from an ebo jager

rena smart heater...300w on my 60g. Its cool cos you can plug the heater into the intake of your canister. very sturdy also (knock on wood)
