I have over ten of these Titanium Heaters in my fish room and at home. They're a paradigm shift in aquarium heating. They're titanium and 400W for under $30! Whaaaaaaaaat? | CyroPro by Hikari is safe and easy for Anchor Worms and Fish Lice. |

If your heater seizes "on" at least the thermostat will stop a tragedy. | LifeGuard by Tetra is a tablet version of a tame 'chloramine-t' or 'halamid' compound that's easy to get and good on bacterial infections, in baths. |
Antimicrobial | For me, filtration-of-choice |
