Some Specific Questions on Equipment
    #5628937 - 05/14/06 04:00 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Hi, I just have some questions on a couple pieces of equipment, and I was hoping to get some feedback from people who have used the following:

1) Fish Tank Heater = Marineland Stealth Visi-Therm Submersible
Qa: I was wondering, what wattage would be sufficient for a pretty standard sized TiT?
Qb: I assume some of the power cord can be submerged on these things, but electricity is a powerful beast not to be taken lightly, is this correct?

2) Air Pump = Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Rena Air 400
Q: It is listed to be able to handle a tank up to 150 gallons. It has two outputs individually controlled. What size PMP would this adequately handle? Could it handle two using each output separately? I am worried because of reading some reviews about these being weaker than stated, and I'm sorry but I don't have any other specifics to be able to use the Calculator linked in the TiT tutorial.

Thank you for any information you have regarding these products.

For the heater the bigger the better, then it has to work less.


You can use this as a guide for your set up,


The stats:
Maximum Pressure: 3psi
Maximum Capacity: 22 lpm / 1,320 lites pre hour
394 gph /6.5 gpm
24,800 cc/minute capacities
Power Consumption: 8w

My FC area:
26' Length
36' Height
23' Depth

Total cubic inches: 21528
cubic feet: 12.4
gallon: 93 / 351 liters

2 FAE pre hour 12.4 cu. ft. divided by 60 = 4.8 CFM cubic feet pre minute / 135.8 liters minuets / 35.9 gpm


So this air pump will exchange the volume of air 3.7 times an hour in my FC through 4 hoses that each can be adjusted.

Thanks for the information. After some further searching I was able to get the specs for the Rena 400. Output = 133 L/hour x 2, so 266 L/hour. According to the chart for the PMP, this will only supply a 30 gallon rubber maid (range: 234 to 350 L/h.) What if some manual fanning is supplemented? Could this support say a 50 gallon rubber maid? Or is there a cheaper model with a higher output? Since this one is already almost $50 new.
