Guide Review - Marineland Mini Heater
Like many other mini heaters, the Marineland Mini Heater lacks temperature controls. However, it contains a thermostat that is factory preset at 78, with an accuracy to +/-1 degree. Another plus is a built in safety feature that automatically turns the heater off if the heater is not in water.
Where this heater shines is the shatterproof thermal plastic it's made of. Sealed in a one piece unbreakable case, you need not worry about having the case crack and short out while in the tank.
At 10 watts, the Marineland Mini Heater can be used for tanks up to three gallons. It is fully submersible, and at a mere five inches, it is fairly easy to conceal in even a small tank.
Bottom line, if you have a tank of three gallons or less, the Marineland Mini Heater is a durable heater that will get the job done.
