What heater/s for my system?

[maddmaxx]

Hello all,
I have a 220g w/ 125g sump. I will admit, I usually get the cheap heaters from the Bay, lol. I usually get 2x 300w heaters. but one seems to have burnt out. I turned up the temp on it to see if it would kick on and it didn't. so what heater/s would you recommend for this tank, and what wattage??

thanx in advance...

I have a 220gl with a 100gl sump and I use an 800 watt JBJ True Temp with the separate controller. Little pricely. but it has worked for 2 years now no issues. Knock on wood. LOL

I really do not want to recommend one retailer over another, but you may want to go to the aquacave forum here and read the posts.

I would get two 300 Watt Eheim Jager heaters. They are good heaters and reliable. Shouldn't cost you more than $65 or so.

Marine Depot sells them:
