short life spanAugust 5, 2010 Kalvin C. Roberts I picked one of these up at Wal-Mart and it didn't even last two weeks, it simply stopped working. Paid a little more for a Theo UL 50 Watt heater and it's been working great for months now!
Beware - could kill your fishJuly 23, 2010 H. Inocian(CA, USA) It electrocuted my catfish... Why? Because they don't do quality control in China. Yes, you can feel how angry I am for killing my catfish which I've had for years. I wish I could give a negative star on this review. Never buy Tetra products, you have been warned.
Out of the Box BrokenJune 21, 2010 Insert Cool Name Here(South) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this heater (from WalMart)last week for my 5 gallon tank. When I first put it in the tank the red light came on. After maybe a minute or so the light turned off. I wondered whether or not it was heating the water...
After a couple days I moved the heater to my 10 gallon tank. The light did not come on, even after unplugging and replugging it. It's been in this tank for about three days, and the light hasn't come on. The temperature has actually dropped a few degrees since being in this tank. I will be returning it to the store as soon as possible.
Horrible heaterFebruary 20, 2010 S. Forbes(NC USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was excited to get a heater for my smaller aquarium but this one did not ever get the temperature higher than 72 degrees. On the box it says 78 degrees + or - 2 degrees. What a waste of time. I returned it the next day. If you care about the heat in your tank you probably won't want this one. It if were only adjustable I could then have turned it up and kept it. Instead it is a worthless piece of equipment. Save yourself the time and grief of ordering this item.
Died after 3 weeksJanuary 24, 2010 Amy A. Robson(San Jose, CA United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Purchased this heater at petsmart. It my 5 gallon tank at 80-82 degrees, but died after only three weeks. Very disappointing.
