How to choose the right heater for your aquarium?
There are 3 elements to consider to determine the right heater for your aquarium size:
- Room temperature
- Aquarium water volume
- Desired temperature.
Most aquarium experts recommend that you determine your heater’s power in terms of watts per gallon (WPG). Typically, you will need around 2.5 to 5 watts per gallon in your tank.
So, for example, a 10-gallon aquarium would need a 25- to 50-watt heater.
Still, this is only a rough estimate—you will also need to consider the room temperature to make an accurate calculation.
If your room temperature is low, you will need a larger heater to raise the water temperature in your tank—a cold room may require more than 5 watts for each gallon of water.
Easy Setup
Simply press the "SET" button, and the temperature will increase by 1℉. When it reaches 93℉, pressing it again will reset it to 64℉.
Indicator Lights
The fish aquarium heater features indicator lights: a red light signifies active heating, and a green light indicates temperature maintenance.
Suction Cups
To make placement convenient, the fish heater comes with suction cups. These suction cups allow for easy and secure attachment in your fish tank.
Fully Considerations for Undesired Situations
Dry Run Protection
The aquarium heater prevents dry operation with an error code (E1) if not fully submerged. Submerge it completely to remove the error and resume function.
Overheat Protection
The fish tank heater stops and displays H1 if water exceeds 97℉/36℃, resuming when it drops below 93℉/34℃.
Memory Function
The turtle tank heater automatically resumes the last temperature setting after a power cut, no reprogramming needed.

Recently my team got a Beta fish in our office which we named him Mamba. He started out in a 2-3 gallon bowl with 2 plants and a sign. A teammate and I discussed how we wouldn’t want to be in a small apartment with little to no furniture, heat, lights, and 24hr cleaner (filter). So it began, we not only got more furniture, but a 5 gallon townhouse with a light, water filtration system, and a cute heater. Mamba has been swimming all over his new place!

After using this product in my 10-gallon tropical fish tank for 3 months, I can confidently say it's a reliable piece of equipment for the price point. The LED digital is bright, easy to read, and eliminates the guesswork of analog heaters. The temperature control is impressively accurate, maintaining a steady 75 degrees without fluctuation, and the compact size means it doesn't dominate the tank visually. The installation process was straightforward. The heater's automatic shut-off feature provides peace of mind when the water level gets too low. I particularly appreciate how quickly it heats the water - it brought my tank up to temperature within a few hours. The suction cups are strong at first and now they are undone by itself couple of times now. You might have to replace the cups and check the effectiveness occasionally. While the display is convenient, it can be difficult to read if the heater is positioned at certain angles, and the cord could be a bit longer for easier placement options. Just remember to calibrate it with a separate thermometer when first setting up, as there can be a slight variance between the displayed temperature and actual water temperature.

Love how small it is and it showes the temp of the tank water.

After looking around for a heater for my daughter's fish tank, I came across this one and figured I'd give it a shot. It is small and takes up very little space but the digital display is really helpful and it heated up a 10 gal tank super quickly!

I purchased this 28th Oct 2024. It’s dead already. My turtle almost died. The seller was so nice to send me a replacement part. I will purchase for this seller anytime again.

So far, so good. I got the 25 W heater for my 1.6 gal aquarium that I plan on using for a Beta fish. I wanted to warm the water just a bit, so I figured I'd try this small water heater. The heat level seems fairly accurate and it seems to work well.Now, the 25 W heater is suppose to be used in smaller tanks (5-10 gal), but mine is even smaller at only 1.6 gal, so I just tinkered with the temperature setting to get it close to 74 F. I just set the temp a degree or 2 lower than what I wanted to get. My aquarium has a temperature gauge and it's reading 73.7 F, which is close enough. I may actually bump the heat control up 1 more degree, since Beta's are most comfortable in waters between 75 & 82 F. Honestly, I've had Beta fish with out a water heater in the past and they've also done well. I figured this time I could warm the water a smidge.The size of this heater is perfect for my tiny aquarium, so it would probably be minimally noticed in a 5 - 10 gal tank.This heater is super easy to install. Simply clip the suction cup onto it, dip it down into the water until it's submerged, and suction it to the side of the tank. Then plug it in. The instructions recommend making a drip loop with the cord in case water goes down it. The only thing is that I would've like the heat control to be further up the cord. It's really close to the plug. I think it would've been easier to get to if it had been a bit higher up the cord.The heat controller just works by quick pressing the button to the temp that you want the heater set at. After that, the control will monitor/display the temp of the heater. The control stays set to the temp that you choose, so I don't have to worry about resetting the temp if the power goes out.

Like the fact that I can see and adjust the temperature without having to look into the tank or get my hands wet. Don't have to clean a dirty thermometer to be able to read temperature.
