If i get this heater would i still need a heat lamp?

Answer by ChewySep 24, 2021
You will need a basking lamp and a UVB lamp no matter what. Turtles need a water temperature around 75 to 78 degrees, and a basking air temperature around 90 to 95 degrees so that they bask enough. If they do not bask, they will get shell issues. The UVB is so they can process Vitamin D to get calcium.

how do you known it's working ?

Answer by ChewyDec 07, 2019
The indicator light will turn on when the heating element is actively heating. A thermometer should be kept on the tank and should be checked at least once a day.

Can you use this in a tank that has a turtle and snails?

Answer by ChewyJun 16, 2020
This submersible heater may be used in a tank with a turtle and snails.

can it go in 4 inches of water ?

Answer by ChewySep 21, 2022
This heater is ideal for heating up to 30 gallons of water. It should be fully submerged in the tank water at all times.

Bought August 2024. It's been 8 months but it seems to have quit working. I don't know when it started to go out. The heating light indicator is now barely lit and the water seems colder than it has been. I use a gage on the tank and that currently reads 72 so it's clearly not working anymore. You get what you pay for I guess....

Tetrafauna reptile aquarium heater

This product has 2 big sucker cups on bottom but does not stick very well, I'd wake up in morning and it's floating around in aquarium.

Poor quality

This heater worked for just over one month. It kept the tank warm as described for a little over 6 weeks. The light now stays on indicating it is trying to heat,

This heater worked for just over one month. It kept the tank warm as described for a little over 6 weeks. The light now stays on indicating it is trying to heat, but no heat is being produced. Don't waste your money on this.
