In Sump Heater

Okay, I'm not sure that this is possible or if it's ever been done (new to the marine aquarium thing................again), but is there such thing as an "in sump heater"? *Some type of heater i can leave in the sump to heat the tank so I don't *have to see that annoying electric cord going down into the tank?

Like I said, I'm not sure if this is even possible because of the water flow in the sump, as it may have to work extra hard.

Any help would be appreciated!

I have my heater in my sump with no problems as of yet. I do have it set for 83 so that my tank is at 78.

 

yes i think almost every one who has a sump puts there heater in there.

 

Awesome! I guess now the next question is what's the recommended/best heater for this application? I've got a 37 gallon tank.

 

I love the fluval heaters, they have an LCD screen so it acts as a temp gauge ( to .5), has an alarm for cold or high temps and has a nice enclosure. I also agree that if you have a sump the heater belongs there

 

Have any links for me? I need one for a 37 gallon.

 

150W heater. brands are always a personal preference
