      Just a reminder to everyone it will start cooling down significantly at night. It is a good idea to have a spare heater and if you use one heater controller on hand. My heater controller went bad last year and luckily for me a member had a spare for me to buy. Also, if your heater is around 2yrs old it would be a good idea to replace it. In the end the price of a new heater is significantly less then our water pets. Hit me up if you have any questions about anything.

      I bought a 500Watt heater as back up for my 80g just last week. Good looking out! =)

      I can definitely attest to this, as it happened to me last year. Thank you Jason for being so generous, and providing me your backup! Great advice right here.

      Good heads up.
      I always run 2 heaters, both a little more than half what I think I need in watts, that way if one fails it's less dramatic of a swing, and most likely I'll notice before it's an issue.
