    All powerheads and pumps are kept on 24/7. The tank would be a constant temp or higher if it was a powerhead/pump issue.

    I just finding it hard that 2 heaters cannot keep a stable temp.

    Strange :/

    It's always a combination of factors. The pump may be one factor in the combination. How much flow is around the heater?

    Okay I've moved the heater to the bubble trap where the flow of water is alot stronger.

    I'm getting a small shock from the water and cannot pin point from where its coming from , I've unplugged each equipment and put it back one by one but puzzled as i cannot find out why.
