hygger Titanium Tube Heater 200W
Manufacturer-rated for aquariums of 30–40 US gal; adjustable 68–90°F.
A 200 W titanium heater tube with a Teflon cover and a separate temperature sensor, run by a controller on the cord that shows the water temperature: set it from 68 to 90 °F in 1° steps. It stops heating if the water passes 95 to 97 °F and starts again at 90 °F.
Consider: Titanium won’t shatter like glass, and the controller remembers your setting through a power cut, but the heater and its sensor are two pieces to place in the tank.
US version, item HG085. Check what’s in the box before you buy.

Before choosing this model
- Keep the heater and its sensor fully under water, apart from each other and out of the sand, as hygger says.
- If its reading and your thermometer disagree, hold + and − together for 5 seconds to correct it by up to 5 °F.

Plan for the routine work
- Unplug it and wait 15 minutes before a water change or before you take it out, as hygger says.
- Mount it near the filter intake so the flow carries the heat around the tank.
