Pros & Cons
Pros
It initially heats the water up pretty quickly, within a few hours. Does a solid job with no temp swings. They keep the water at a balmy 45 f no matter how cold it gets outside. Temperature gauges let me check that they are all working at a glance.
Durable powerful. Works great and no complaints. One for a 2. They all work well. It holds well.
It's easy to hook on and doesn't come off.
Cons
The adjustment knob feels as if it will break. The foam packaging is cracked and the glass is broken at the tip/bottom of the heater. Waking up to find the tank hotter than you want is not a good feeling.
Returning this heater. Not good. Very disappointed. Don't trust the thermometer. This item is not to be trusted.
For those with aquariums that have to be within a small window of error, say a betta tank (78-80*f), this is a questionable buy.
Highlights
Quality
The heater itself seems to be working well and is easy to use.
Built to last and fits perfectly in the tank.
The thermometer that came with it broke after a single day.
It is made of thin plastic so be sure to put it down where you want it because trying to move it once filled may break it.
Price
Worth the price for a small heater, keeps my fish warm and they love it !

This item works but im currently using it in my 20 gallon fish aquarium and i have noticed that the temperature is slightly higher than expected in the 80 to 81 degree f range

Consistently i was expecting about 7778 degrees and for me it is slightly to warm for my setup

If i didnt have a designated power strip for my fish tank it would be a problem

I added a small heater and a 12 x 16” mat to put under it to finish it off

However ive noticed that it sometimes overrides the set temperature

Additionally the included thermometer isnt very accurate so i recommend using a separate thermometer for precise readings
