    I am moving this weekend so in the process I am changing a few things out. The one thing that I can't decide on is which heater to go with. What kind of heater does everyone use?

    I have heard mostly great reviews on both of those. A few horror stories of earlier models, but I'm hoping that the issues have been resolved. I have an eheim right now, but it's getting up there in years. I just figured now would be a good time to switch it out.

    The consensus on this question, if you ask enough people, is Jager or Finnex. Either one of these is going to work well. Jager because they use thick glass, Finnex for titanium (I use the one with the digital readout)
