hey guys. what kind of water heaters do you guys use. and does it work? because my water heater just doesn't seem to wanna work. i bought it the first time and it was working that night. it kept it warm but then after that, it seems like it died out. then i went and exchanged it for another one of the same kind and same thing happened. now its not even heating anymore. anyone care to give me suggestions on a good heater that actually works? oh yah. i'm broke so a decent price range would be great as well. thanks!

I have had one that cost me about 17 dollars, but I only use it during the cold weather, the rest of the time the water stays around 80 deg. Make sure that you have the one with a thermostat at the top to adjust the temp.

I think that whatever brand you are getting probably came out defective, might want to try a different brand. Very Happy

I use an Auquatic Garden heater from Petco. It was $15 and has very sturdy glass and tank clamp. I also only use mine in the winter. The heat from the light gives enough heat for the day and the heater at night.

you know.
i'm using the same one. for some reason, this is the second one i have because i took the first one in to trade for a new one cuz it wasn't working. but now this one doesn't work either. so like i don't know what it is. maybe i just don't know how to use this one. cuz i bought another one from walmart and that one works really really good... its keeping my babies warm while the one i got at petco is the one that's just not working... i think its making my razorback hibernate which i just don't want happening.

Odd...did it just not turn on or did it say it was on but not heat? Maybe they just had a faulty batch of heaters.

yah...that's probably what i'm guessing.. probably a big batch cuz the light doesn't turn on....even when it gets to below 70 it still doesn't turn on... so like i dunno...but oh wells...i guess that's what i get for going cheap... Laughing
