- Hi netters,
-
- Just been reading the FAQ for these groups and something struck me as odd.
- In the section titled Starting a new Aquarium, the heater wattage recommended (as a rule
- of thumb) is 2.5 watts per gallon.
- My question - is this really enough ? I've recently seen 8 watts/gal recommended.
-
- Can anybody clarify ?
-
- Thanks,
- Adam..
