Nice heater mounts from Octo Aquatics.

Seriously thinking about getting these double mounts even if I don’t win the contest. I’ve got 2 heaters in my sump and the suction cups on one is starting to give out.

Nice!
Im so going to order one now

they look nice, but I'm trying to figure out why I would actually need them. My heaters are at the bottom of my sump - nothing touches them save water. When I clean my sump, I turn them off and carefully remove them. Heater holders would look nice, but other than that I can't see much of a benefit. Am I missing anything?

I don't have a sump anymore. AIO with a heater that gets knocked around when moving/ cleaning in that tight space, I also need a new dosing line holder, so why not?

Plus support our vendors

Small sumps like mine I can stack them to save on space and I like magnets over suction cups.

Love mine! Flow in the sump is around the heater and into the next baffle.

Just got the double stack and now concerned about titanium around the magnets... I see you are using a titanium heater.. Any issues or concerns?

Sweet. Was starting to worry for a second... Looks really nice and best option next to cementing acrylic pieces to the sump... Thanks.

Octo Aquatics are great! I have a custom lid from Matt and I plan on ordering one of the double heater holders soon. Quality stuff!

Matt even returned my call to validate no issues with the magnets and metal heaters.. Double heater holder is nice, you won't regret it..

Yeah I've had my eye on that double heater mount for awhile I'm tired of my Eheims just floating around.

I'm cheap! PVC Conduit clamps with nylon nuts/bolts.

Did you screw these into your baffle?

Actually it's a drill-through because I have one heater on one side of the baffle and a second on the other side....both held by conduit clamps. You can see all four clamps during the building of the sump:
