Heater for Comline Filter

[arc eye]

Hi Rodger,

What brand and watt heaters fit inside the comline filters, i.e. 3163?

Thanks!

For Eheim/Jager heaters only the 50W will fit, I have heard of people using up to 100W without issue but I could not tell you exactly what brands fit or are shorter in higher wattages.

Unfortunately, 50w is a bit low. I'll have to see what I can find.

The heater feature is really designed for nano tanks more than anything, where space is at a premium, the largest we recommend is 75W, I have heard enough reports of using up to 100W to feel comfortable with that but on a larger tank the heater is best off being the correct size and outside the box.
