I have a 5 tanks(20, 42, 55, 60 and a 90) that I need to buy or update heaters for. What do you suggest? Looking for quality at a fair price too. Are there any links like the AC110 link?
 
I don't know of any discount links. I like the visitherm stealth heaters as they are black, durable plastic, and have actual dial with temp settings vs + or - signs. I buy mine at www.thatfishplace.com or www.kensfish.com. They also have a warranty with replacement if they fail or break.
 
When it comes to heaters in this hobby you get what you pay for. If it's cheap then it's most likely junk.

Yeah, I know but I was hoping that someone might have a link for me to use or something like that.

I agree.

Go with the stealth heaters. I like those.
 
Generally the concensus around here is to get Stealths, but be aware that they don't have a light on them.
 
Jager.
 
I use jager, I got most of my heaters from Kensfish.com.

I agree. The only thing I don't like about the stealth heaters are that there is no "on" indicator light. Otherwise, thats all I use now, even after trying titaniums, and the price is right too ;)
