Following on from my last post regarding Filters my next thing to find is heaters.
Some background for anyone who didnt read the other post
Im getting a 4 foot tank that is divided into 4 seperate sections to create 4x 1ft tanks in one - to breed some guppies.
Im going to get 4x 100w heaters. Cheap Fish Things who advertise on this site are offering 5x 50w or 5x 100w for £34.99 - im thinking this gives me a spare.

Question is are heaters vastly diffrent between makes? Am i wasting my money getting cheaper heaters or are that all like for like?
Cheers again.

thing with most things these days is you pay for the packaging.....with his there is very little involved so they can afford to be abit cheaper |

They all pack up Netty, whatever price you pay for them. I suspect the lower wattage ones last longest. |

i know they all pack up, but the ones he's getting are mounted on a card with tie wraps ?.....unlike most that have plastic etc. My point was they are not just cheaper because they are lower quality. |

Monitors Direct does a remote controller that you can use the duff ones on (provided that it is just the thermostat bit that is duff) |
