heaters and thermometers

Does any member have experience with the hygger 150W Submersible Aquarium Heater with Digital Temperature Controller, Mini Fish Tank Heater for 20–30 Gallon Tanks. I am disappointed with my Eheim Jager heaters bc they are difficult to calibrate.

Also, what are members recommendations for a good quality aquarium thermometer. The cheap $5 digital thermometers don't seem to last long and need frequent battery changes.

Thanks for your comments/suggestions.

I use JW Pet Fusion Smart Temp Aquarium Thermometers in all of my tanks. They are not digital nor "smart" LOL but they are flat against the glass for easy reading and held in place by a magnet. Some minor drawbacks: algae can grow on them over time and, if you have cats, they will be happy to knock the magnet off the glass from time to time.

siamese algae eater attacks gouramis

I would like the members opinion on what to do about this siamese algae eater. It was raised in my tank from a small size. Now it is quite large and delights in torturing the 4 pearl gouramis in my tank. This happens particularly at feeding time.

This aggressive behavior won't improve over time and might even worsen. It may be time to part with the Siamese algae eater. If you wish to do so, you may enter the fish in the club's mini-auction. If you join the club's membership ($20), you will receive a 70/30 split of proceeds from the sale.  Non-club members receive a 50/50 split of proceeds from their items.

question about multi-outlet strips.

Hello, AAAA friends. I am using a 10 outlet strip that is old and has no surge protection. I would like to know what electrical equipment members use to service their tanks.
