There are a few on the market these days. Not so long ago the only real choice was Hydor. I've run a Hydor for a few years. They can be a bit temperamental, I've had to take mine apart a few times to get it working after it's been in storage for a few months. Other than that it's kept the tank at an even temp and has been reliable whilst in operation. I think a lot of folk now opt for thermo filters, with a built in or dedicated heater.

Yeah already have the non thermo filters just trying to find out what was the better option 👍

I made my own with PVC, cable glands and a Helio PTC heater.
Been working at 25C for a long time now.

I would like to see pix of your DIY solution. I am personally too scared to go external heater, due to leaks and not working. Also don't they use double the electricity

Why would they use double the electricity? What makes you think that?
