Title: Them Aquarium heaters
Post by: geefree on January 14, 2010, 11:50:56 pm

I can tuse them, as i thought it would be ok to fully submerse it in the tank....

but i only have a tank in the van, and it fills overnight... so even if i popped it in , it would be submersed by morning.

 ??? ::)

Got mine fully submersed in the water. Fill the tank before bed, drop in the aquarium heater, plug in and go.

I did forget last night though :( should be ok though

just dont drain the tank so much

or just turn them on just before bed when your tank will have water in

its a 300w aqua one... just read the box, picture of how to.... and how not to....

there is a big X next to the fully submersed pic, and a tick with the cable just out of the water.
