heaters for 40b

Hello everyone. I am very close to having everything I need for my new 40B to get set up, but I have yet to get heaters. I was originally just going to use the heater from my 20T and an extra I have laying around, but hey, tax refunds are coming soon I just looked or BRS and it seemed like everything they had didn't get a very good rating. I was thinking of getting 2 100 or 150 watt heaters and a controller. Also, I wanted to put one in my HOB cpr fuge. Can you recommend anything?

 

Eheim jager!

 

thats what I was thinking too- do they make a controller, or is there one that can be used with those?

 

anyone? I'm interested specifically in the controller... can you use them in any combo? it doesn't have to be advice specific to my tank

 

Pretty sure any heater can be used with a controller.. Controller just tells it when to turn on and off much like the built in heater controller. I have the reef keeper lite and it works well and for $120 in controls more than just my heater.. And stay away from glass heaters if you can, it makes like easier

 

I have a fluval e300 on my 40B, easy to set and control, very nice digital read out.

 

I wouldn't put one in the fuge just for what if you are low in water it could melt the CPR fuge ? What siZe sump do you have? A 150 should be enough.
