How do I install this Fluval T-Series Heater?

This heater is incredibly easy to set up and install, just attach it to an inside surface of your aquarium using the suction cups provided. Before you plug it in, make sure that your water line is no lower than the minimum water line near the top of the heater.

Once you turn your heater on, you can adjust its output by turning the temperature dial on top of the heater to your desired temperature. The heater will glow red as it heats your aquarium up to temperature. Once it reaches your set temperature, it will glow blue as it enters standby mode.

Do I need a heater for my aquarium?

In most cases, yes. If you're keeping tropical or marine fish and you don't live in an area blessed with sun and warm temperatures year-round, then you'll need a heater for your aquarium. Some temperate or coldwater fish may also appreciate a heater, especially during colder months or if they're being kept inside a garage with no heating.

Before you purchase and install a heater, it's worth checking two important things. First, how big is your aquarium? A large volume of water will require a heater with a large wattage rating. And two, what kind of fish are you keeping? Some fish like a range of temperatures, while others prefer a specific, stable temperature. Do your research and always try to keep fish that like similar temperatures together.
