Heater works great!Jan 25, 2011
By DATA356 The heater is designed to only adjust the aquarium temp no more than 7 degrees higher than the ambient air temp. This is stated plainly in the instructions. Works perfect on my 6 gallon Fluval tank. It is keeping the tank temp at 76 steady. We keep the thermostat in our house at 70. Very nice looking heater, blends in with the tank background perfectly.

Worked well for two months, then quit.Sep 12, 2011
By K. Wright I bought this heater for my 5 gallon planted shrimp tank. It fits perfectly into the tank, hides well in a corner (it is black, straight and designed to fit into a corner) and hands-free. No adjustments necessary and keeps my tank temperature well within acceptable range. Has a dim red light that is only visible when tank light is off. I like it that it is completely submersible and unobtrusive. Many of my friends have been impressed with its sleek style and the fact that it really doesn't look like a heater. If I felt like hiding it even more I could put it near the bottom of the tank, but I choose to leave it upright. My shrimp like to hang out on the top of it near the water's surface.
For the price, you won't find a better submersible heater for a small tank. Many would like to be able to adjust the temperature on the heater, but I have never had a problem with it. The suction cups will change color, graying over time, but they stick well and I haven't had any trouble with it as I have with other heaters.
This gets 4 stars because there is no thermostat; otherwise this is a 5-star heater.
BUY THIS ON AMAZON!!! Aquarium stores have to mark it up considerably.
***UPDATE December 2011*** The heater stopped heating my tiny tank. As this was a serious problem for my warm-loving shrimp, I went to Petco and bought a heater with an adjustable thermostat and I hate to say it, but I like the cheap adjustable one better. I won't be buying another one of these heaters. I reduced the rating to reflect the fact that my heater did not last more than eight weeks.

After 6 months of use, thermostat stuck on and heated my 6g Edge to above 95 degree, all but one fish died! Will not ever buy another Fluval heater again!

Super little heaterOct 27, 2011
By Chipp Walters I have to say, I was very suspicious at first. I really wanted one with a thermostat which I could set. In fact, I originally purchased the Hydor 25 W: [...]
but it was ugly and most of all inaccurate. I never could get it 'dialed' in. So, I purchased the Fluval one and it's been SUPER. It's nondescript and just works. Highly recommend it!
Good for small tanksMay 02, 2012
By Coeurdenuit I have this on a 7.5 gallon tank, and the water is always 78 degrees... sleek and unobtrusive. I was worried about it's ability, but it is doing the trick on my small tank.
