Aquarium heaters

Reliable aquarium heaters for aquariums

Constant water temperatures with aquarium heaters

The aquarium heater is an indispensable device for every aquarist who wants to create an optimal environment for their underwater inhabitants. Whether tropical fish, invertebrates or aquatic plants, most aquarium inhabitants require a constant water temperature in order to be and remain healthy and happy. An aquarium heater plays a crucial role in this, as it ensures that the aquarium water is always at the correct temperature.

Below we will introduce you to the different types of aquarium heaters, explain how they work and explain important selection criteria.

Aquarium heater types

There are different types of aquarium heaters, including:

  • Heating rods
    These are the most commonly used heaters in aquariums. They consist of an immersion heating element that emits heat into the water and an integrated thermostat to keep the desired water temperature constant.

  • Bottom heaters
    These heaters are installed under the gravel or substrate in the bottom of the aquarium. They heat the water indirectly by heating the substrate, which then emits the heat.

  • Filter heaters
    These heaters are integrated into the filter and heat the water as it flows through the filter. They have the advantage of saving space and ensuring even heat distribution in the aquarium.

How aquarium heaters work

Most aquarium heaters work with a thermostat that measures the temperature of the water and regulates the heating element accordingly. If the water temperature in the aquarium falls below the set value, the heating element is activated and starts to heat the water. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the heating element switches off. This automatic control mechanism ensures that the aquarium water is constantly kept at the correct temperature.

Selection criteria for aquarium heaters

Several factors should be taken into account when selecting an aquarium heater:

  • Aquarium size: the power of the heater should be selected according to the size of the aquarium to ensure sufficient and even heating.

  • Temperature range: Check whether the heater covers the required temperature range for your aquarium inhabitants.

  • Reliability & Accuracy: A high quality heater should be reliable and provide accurate temperature control.

  • Safety features: Take note of safety features such as overheating protection or automatic switch-off in the event of dry running.

  • Installation & maintenance: Check how easy the heater is to install and maintain.

The right aquarium heater is crucial for the health and well-being of all aquarium inhabitants. It ensures a stable and suitable water temperature, which is essential for fish, aquarium plants and other aquarium inhabitants to survive and thrive in the aquarium.

Before purchasing an aquarium heater, it is important to consider the individual requirements of the aquarium inhabitants. Every aquarium is unique and the needs of different fish and plant species can vary. It is therefore advisable to find out in advance about the optimum temperature requirements of your aquarium inhabitants.

Quality and durability are important aspects when choosing a heater, as they allow you to maintain a constant temperature in the aquarium over a longer period of time.

In addition, you should always keep safety aspects in mind. Ideally, the heater should have protective mechanisms to prevent overheating or dry running. This not only protects your aquarium inhabitants, but also the device itself and minimises potential risks.

An aquarium heater is an essential piece of equipment for creating an optimal environment in your aquarium. By choosing a high-quality and suitable heater for your individual aquarium, you can ensure that your underwater world thrives and that your aquarium inhabitants can lead a healthy and happy life in your aquarium.

Tip: Switch off the aquarium heater during the day and, if necessary, at night when the outside temperature is high, especially if aquariums need to be cooled instead of heated in summer, and save on unnecessary electricity costs. As soon as the outside temperature drops again and the water temperature in the aquarium is the same and drops, you can switch the aquarium heater on again.
