Do you really need a heater? I think it is one of the biggest waste in the hobby. IF you keep your home between 74-78 then dont need one at all.
Do you think its better to run two heater instead of one bigger one?
This would be my preference tooI have 2 x 500W Finnex Titanium heaters on an Inkbird controller.
I have a 150 in my 120 but its set at 76. Almost never comes on in the summer or winter as I keep the house 75. My tank stays 77-78 year round with 4 wave pumps, return pump, skimmer.Do you really need a heater? I think it is one of the biggest waste in the hobby.

I use this oneWhich inkbird controller do you use?. I run the finnex controller with my finnex 800. But I want to run two smaller ones instead. I see they have a WiFi one too that can alert you via app if something is wrong .
This assumes you a.) find an indoor temperature of 74-78F comfortable and b.) you don’t live in a part of the country that gets cold enough in the winter that the energy costs of keeping your home a consistent 74F or higher would more than outweigh the cost of a heater.Do you really need a heater?
