    Alright so I'm considering replacing my existing heater in my 90 gallon tank. I was thinking about a ebo jager or an eheim jager and I was wondering on how many watts would be suitable for a 90 gallon. I know you can do multiple heaters at once since some go out but I'm just looking to do one heater at the moment and pick up another shortly after. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks;D

    i would go titanium with a external thermostat. check them out at an online store. they arent really that much more expensive then the regular ones, and they are safer.

    +1 on above - 90 gallons , 300 watts is what I would choose if you live in a cooler climate

    I get away with 200 on my 70 as ambient temp is warmer here
