I have not used that model but as long as you are using a controller, any heater you can get a hold of will work perfectly fine Since using a controller, I consider heaters disposable and buy whatever I can find.

I would not trust my fish tank to an Ebay heater. There is so much junk on Ebay now that I would not risk it to save a few bucks.

What size heaters for 90 gal?

 

[Sarah24!]

Hello,

I would go as large as possible 300 watt so it doesn’t have to work hard. In looking at your heater, I’m soooo sorry but I definitely would not trust that in my reef tank. I have two 300 watt heaters in my 240 and mine are by eheim. They were like 40 each and have been amazing. I probably should add a third but I have never dipped below 78. Actually I am trying to average between 76-78 but I’m always at 79 for some reason. I have one set at 78 and one set at 77 in case one fails I’m still safe. Heaters are not super expensive so I would definitely spend the extra 30 dollars for a nice one. Even petco has better heaters than that for 20 dollars and 300 watts also. That should be plenty for a 90 gallon.

I've had good luck with the aqueon pros on my 90. I had a 300 but added a separate 300 since the old was was touching 6 years old so figured I'd give it a break
