Thanks man. It's coming along. Because it's out in the garage, I want to hang curtains or make something that will hide away some of the supplies i keep on shelves

HuuuUUUmmMMMP DaaAAAAaayyy! You are right, they sure do get it done for little investment and even expensive heaters can fail. I do need to get a power shutoff for my reef tank though in case there is an issue with the one I have in there.

haha..love the H-day! The only heater issue I've had is them dying on me and leaving my fish cold. But that's the best of two options.. die or fry..Fish are pretty tough and can take a dip in temperature better than a fish fry. =D

Ikr! Love the eyes

Kenisha Mackins she wants the D 😎

Looks like he is wearing eye liner.

His hairline is so pretty

@@Phil009123 I think he has a lot of eyelashes makes it look like he got mascara on lol

Drunk shopping for pet supplies? We must be friends 😂

Same with mine! I’ve tried two different heaters now

same

i might return it and get a different hearer

Mine did the same thing

Mine too! Wtf! It’s always cold in the tank 🙄

Jimins Jams I got from Petsmart today but the water is overheating idk why

@@lukemorrison4791 DO NOT USE IT that will kill your fish i got mine on amazon for 26

Maximus Aquatics yea for being your #500! Congrats. I have found these to be a solid little heater. Software depends on the type of computer you run. So far, I keep the edits very simple so that the process doesn't keep me from wanting to make videos....since I already spend my day doing them. 😁 I use an old MacBook and Final Cut Pro X for these. It's really fast to edit and export with it and there are a lot of great plugins to make titles and other things very easy while looking professional. I tend to use FCPX at work to because of the quick workflow, but also have Adobe Premiere. Really though, if you plan what you are shooting, you can use just about anything that gives you 2-3 video tracks to work with. Some videos I even edit with iMovie on my iPhone. I started in editing using Pinnacle software and it was limited, but got the job done. iMovie on a Mac also works well. It's really about getting the elements you need. A good audio or narration and video to cover it.

Really appreciate the info. I really need to purchase a Mac, their editing software & options seem far superior to others.

How do you make it red

Buy a cover instead

Did you ever figure it out?

They never answered 😮

Patty Bell eyyyy Ramsey Minnesota up here

If you want to have max of 5 you will need a 10 gallon tank at least

It turns off once it reaches its desired temperature and then if it gets below that it will go back on.

Jenny Star I have an acrylic tank an I've used this heater for a long time with no problem.

Omg did you just ask that? No they dont sell those just to amputate your fingers and kill your fish. Of course everything is waterproof and not dangerous

+Sham Shannon it's possible. That's crazy!

U leave it on 24/7 also the filter the air pump u can turn it off at night

Could it be that it is reaching temperature and turning off? That's what mine does.

Like i know it turns off after it reaches the right temp, but even then it's not warm enough.

Avrilcandy123 mines keep turning red and the water gets cold and I’m worry bc my betta fish needs to be in warm waters

luke morrison yup same. So annoying

The heater will turn into the same temp as the tank so there is no need to worry, But it will heat up

I should be right

I use the Gel type of superglue in my tanks to glue rocks and corals. We use Gel because it can setup in water pretty quickly to hold tight.

Thanks!

you need a 100 watt one or more likely

It is red when the water is too cold so it warms it up then when the water is warm enough the red light turns off

Yes

+bruh broski 3 out of my four different brands of heaters have some condensation in them. It used to worry me, but I haven't had further issues with any of them yet

Creative Fish Studio okay sweet thanks for the info man, hows your tetra heater holdingup after another 8 months?

It's doing great. I just took it out 3 days ago because I'm getting rid of a bunch of tanks. Now that my pond is complete, I moved the Guppies out to the pond and don't need the 5 tanks I was experimenting with breeding them in.

You should let it acclimate about 30 minutes before you turn it on so it doesn't shatter any glass. If you turn it on while its super cold it may shatter the heater.

Your fish will be boiled

+Chris S its just a sponge filter. I get them on Amazon. All you need is a compressor and air hose to make it work. I love sponge filters

ChrisS4 ChrisS4 idk my heater turns on the light and heats but then turns off and the water becomes hella cold so I have to unplug it so it warms up the water again

Takes more then 30 minuets bro..

It should work for a 10 gallon if it is indoors in an area that isn't very cold. I think it was less than $15. I don't remember any more.

But my water temp is always at 78 degrees.

Gastanker's Fish Vids damn I wish mine worked that good also it’s for 10 gallons

Same! The water was HOT. Thankfully it was in my hospital tank which had no fish in it

I mean I had mine for over 2 years and always did it’s job kept my water at 78 during winter and never had a problem idk

Mine has been great. It’s been on around 79 degrees for me

Agreed

Jenn B. Return it. I found my 5 gallon almost boiling tonight because of it. Thankfully only plants in it currently. Get a fluval heater. I’ve had one in my 40 gallon for two years with no issue

+SkidMark133 it is called hornwort. If it dies...it's a pain as it sheds needles like a Christmas tree. :) if it is healthy, it grows like crazy and you'll be thinning it out

Yes, tetras should have heaters to keep the temp between 75-78 degrees Fahrenheit. It helps their metabolism

It depends. J run a cold house to save money in winter. Water temp is almost equal to air temp so if your air is too cold for a tetra the water is cold. I just got a heater in a tank with Barb's and tetras and danios it's running 65 in my room right now I decided it was too risky. Didn't lose anyone at that temp but use your judgement.

My lfs recommended this same one for my 2.6gl shrimp tank so you good 👍

no lol

It's an infrared temp gun I got from Amazon for about $15. It's awesome

@@hooktherapy Thank you.

It may be that it has reached the temp of 76-78 degrees. Do you have a thermometer.

Creative Fish Studio yes but the thermometer says it’s at 72 degrees

Hmm. Then it may not be working properly.

What? You shouldn't have fish if you dint know the answer to that 😂

Amazon

The same happen with mine. What does it mean?

The red light is on until it reaches 78 degrees then goes on green (stand by)

Richard Yang It is alright

nope

It would be a bit big in that size. They make small flat ones that would be better for that size tank

Do you have a thermometer in the tank? I'm sometimes shocked by how cold the water feels at the right temp. Hard to know what is happening without knowing the temp of your tank.

Creative Fish Studio yes i have a thermometer. it’s pretty close to 80 but it’s cold when i touch it, but sometimes when i touch it, it feels warm. i’m getting my betta on saturday, should i worry about the temperature or let it be because of what the thermometer says?

I used a 50 or 75 watt. Most thermometers say what size tanks they are good for.

10 watts a gallon

GunXMetal37 50 watts

Bradyn tinker same I bought one and the red light stays on for like 5 min and turns off right away

I figured it out it turns off when the water temp is right then when it gets below 78 degrees it turns back on

Bradyn Tinker productions thank you sooo much

LOL duh

I got one for my betas an I’m gonna put mollies in there is that ok for them and when does it turn green

+Hailey what is the temp in your tank. If it is warm in your house utmost already be the righ temp

+Hailey but if the temp is below 74 degrees F and it still doesn't light up, then you may want to return it

Creative Fish Studio I too have the same problem i bought it fron walmart tonight unboxed it plugged it up and the light never came on and its worrying me idk if the water is to cold for my baby RES and i dont have a therometer

jahmel dixon try making a boll or cup of cold water to see if the light comes on to heat it up. It may be that your tanks is already warmer than the 74-78 it tries to maintain.

Creative Fish Studio i tried that not to long ago w cold water with my cousin the light did not come on after 15-20 minutes of sitting in the water

Curious also . Did u try it ?

@@brittanyphelps135 I wanted to but mine wouldn’t turn on

I'm getting a 3.5 gallon tank for my daughter for her bday with a betta and I'm so scared about what type of heater to get

@@brittanyphelps135 I think you can find some mini ones online

Used it in my 3 gal tank for many years, not 1 fish had died yet.

MadGirl BitchingBoutStuffs if you can’t adjust it, you should set your room temperature higher, I had the same problem. Unless there isn’t enough watts for your size of aquarium?

@@Yommasandy well, it's my bedroom and I don't want to cook myself 😅. It's 50 watt for 10-15 liters. I don't believe power to be the problem. (Don't worry its a small Fisch that only becomes 2cm. I would not keep anything else in such a small puddel. And its only for the fry anyway. ) The heater makes 23 Celsius but the fish need 24-28. I think the problem will slove itself in summer but what can I do in the winter? I wonder if there isn't a way to change the set temperature at least a little? I know that you can hack it to be set on all the time but what if that gets to hot? Urrrg why did Tetra put a pre set heater in my set... thanks for the reply!

MadGirl BitchingBoutStuffs fair enough but usually preset heaters do fine when the room temperature is actually room temperature. My room has the biggest window so it gets about 15 degrees celsius in the winter, the tank heater can’t provide enough power to keep it at where it’s supposed to be because the temperature outside the aquarium is too low. I’ve never bought a tetra heater so I’m too sure about how to hack it and such but honestly, i bought a marineland adjustable heater for about $30 canadian and it’s way too good against competition for it’s price range. It keeps my 9 gal at 27 degrees, turns off when at the right temperature and has a thermometer built-in if you have to buy a new one.

@@Yommasandy I would buy one, I already am using a good one in my 60 liters Tank. But it would not fit inside the bowl😅. It's round. Im only having it because mum won't allow any more. Otherwise I would have already bought a different one thats better suited. Even if you don't know how to hack these thinks I still wanna thank you for replying! It's much appreciated. Do you think that one degree Celsius too cold is a problem or that it's still in the 'not animal abuse' range? Because I honestly rather give them away then keeping them too cold. Im still rather new to this hobby so im not sure.

MadGirl BitchingBoutStuffs no problem! and your fish should be fine with a 1 degree difference but any lower would be not acceptable in my opinion, a little too cold for most tropical fish

I honestly don't know about Turtle tanks. As long as it stays submerged, has 10 gallons or less of water and needs to stay around 76-80 degrees F, it should work.

Creative Fish Studio okay thank you

No problem. They are good little heaters, but they don't have any controls.

Creative Fish Studio okay i wanted to send you a picture of my Turtles tank but I'm not able to send it here in KZfaq and the reason for that is because I'm not sure of how many gallons my tank is

So this happening to me it goes red for q minute then goes to green when water is really cold?

Same here im afraid my betta might die 😭
