What to Compare Before Buying

- Power and tank size: It is a 50W heater, so the stated size range is the main guide for whether it matches your setup.
- Mounting surface: The heater uses suction cups, so the tank material and available mounting area matter.

What Else You May Need
You will need an aquarium that falls within the stated 3.7-24 litre range and a safe place to keep the external controller away from water. If you want to read the temperature in Celsius, check whether the Fahrenheit-only display suits your setup.
Safe Use and Important Precautions
The heater has two stated safety responses. It shuts off if the top part is out of water, and it also shuts off if the water temperature goes over 95°F. The controller is not waterproof, so it should be kept away from water. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
Before You Decide
Check that your tank is within the stated 3.7-24 litre range, and confirm that Fahrenheit-only temperature control suits you. Also make sure you can place the controller away from water and that the tank surface suits suction-cup mounting.
