Best Heater
This hermit crab heater is best we have found on the market. It's easy to use and we have our crabs in a hamster cage vs glass kind. We use stones and sand and these heaters make it nice for the crabs without being too hot or burning bottom of cage
Not sure what to think
I have two of these on a 5 gallon tank, it still gets no warmer than 71degrees, room is set to 68 degrees. The aquarium is covered. I'm baffled. They are both warm to touch but if each one only raises the temperature one degree, I'd need four more to get the temp I want?
Mostly great!
We keep our house pretty cool. Ordered this for our hermit crabs and they cuddled right up to it. However it does not stick as well as I’d like. One corner kept falling off so I pushed it against the wall and that works.
Subtle, Stable Heat Source
This little heater is thin and easy to apply. It raises the temperature of my small acrylic terrarium a few degrees. I adhered it to the back left outside wall of the terrarium.
Didn't work
The product did not get the tank warm enough and it quit working after a few days.
Great service
I had never ordered from Chewy before, and I was genuinely impressed with the service and the quality of the product. I received the item basically overnight, and it was not damaged or anything. The heater works great and is very small enough for the aquarium. My little crabs are much happier because of it.
worse heater
Heater did not work as I was hopeing for. It warmed up a little but barely enough for heat to come out so my hermit crab can feel it and didn’t stick very good to the cage on the side and underneath. Wouldn’t recommend to anybody to be honest! Disappointment of $15 spent save YOURE money
10 Gallon Tank
I stuck the heater to the back side corner of the tank. My Crabs burrowed themselves right next to it. It's not as warm as the crabs would like, but it keeps them warm enough for the fall weather. I'll need to get something else for them when it becomes colder.
Having Happy pets.
Im very pleased with this product as i have just started my adventure raising hermit crabs .This Zoo med hermit heater works with just enough heat to keep my pets happy in their new environment.
Upset with product!
I plugged it in and barely got warm! And way to small for a 20 gallon hermit crab tank in witch is was recommended. I'm going to return it and try to find another heater!
