    Heater Recommendations

    My Cobalt Neo-Therm 200 Watt heater failed today.


    I have used this brand of heater for a few years. One in my display tank. One spare and one to heat my freshly mixed saltwater.


    Today I mixed ten gallons of saltwater and placed the heater in the brute trash can i use for mixing. About two hours later my garage smells like a chemical factory.


    The heater had a 6" split on the front of it. The manufacture date on this unit is 8/2017. This heater really doesn't have that many hours on it.


    I believe had this happened in my display tank i may have lost everything.


    So now I'm looking for help in selecting a new heater.

    Finnex titanium or Eheim Jager are the most popular choices that are very reliable.

    I've had great luck with Eheim Jagers.
