just curious what size heater or heaters should i get for my 220 gallon?? most people have said 2 on each side of the tank but i dont know what size to get. what do u think and what brand do u prefer? thanks

i would go with a visitherm stealth heater. very realiable heaters. not sure about a 220 gallon (WOW!). if it helps i got a 55 gallon with a 200 watt heater. 220 over 55 is 4, so 4 200 watt heaters would work im guessing, maybe bump it up to 4 250 or 300 watt heaters to be safe.

sounds like ur going to have a ball with that tank, enjoy!

I'd get 3 Visitherm Stealth 250w heaters and place them equally spaced along the back. I'd keep a 4th one on hand, just in case.

Congrats on the nice big tank!
