Pico Heater Recommendation

[Pacific Reefs]

Just started a 1.5g and my 25w heater barely fits and takes up a lot of room. Any good heater suggestions?

I was looking at this one:

Any Picos with heaters out there?

That will work, you just have to watch the fluctuations. Check out this pico thread, he is using the Hydor heater on a timer.

I bought this one for my 3g pico. It has been doing a good job of keeping a steady temperature of about 78-79.

there are also some tiny titanium heaters that are about as small that are adjustable. it just depends on your budget.

I use the same 10w marineland heater leezer mentions in my 1.5 gallon pico. It is preset to 78 degrees and keeps my tank temp stable.

I have several small picos and use heaters in most of them. Just didn't like the Hydor. The Marineland 10 watt is the way to go. The Hydor is always on and even though you have it on a timer i would expect some fluctuation.
