Please recommend a reliable quality heater!!!!

[Kendall]

Woke up this moring to a 73 degree tank!! This is my 3rd Finnex titanium heater to fail!!! It is an 800w connected to a RKL controller. Been holding steady @ 79 degrees for a few weeks, now its dead! The other 2 were 500w with digital controller. Both controllers stopped working! Now I have to deal with them for warrenty, not the online store I bought from.

Can someone recommend a quality heater for a 325g tank? I run LEDs so no help from halides. Don't know if running multiple heaters is better than running 1 large. This will be controlled by the Digital Aquatics RKL

Any suggestions appreciated!

If you could design one kendall, you'd be a millionaire. ALL heaters are subject to failure or breakage.

Ebo Jager hasa been the best when controlled but ALWAYS poses a problem because they are glass and break as often as the others fail.

So, either way, your best investment is a controller (RK Lite is $100) to keep it on track.

Hope this helps.

i been going thru heaters too lately. Run two smaller heaters, that way if one fails the other still works.

ebo jager is the way to go, always had them and they are reliable.

ebo jager and I think a controller is a must. You spend thousands on corals, another 100$ for a controller is great insurance. Sucks to lose thousands in corals because of a faulty 30$ heater.
