I was using it for 60 gallons and it worked fine. It takes couple of days to see the results thou, so be patient.

I believe it was made for a 50 gallon tank. But I guess it does not really make a difference if it a smaller tank.

I run my 7500 watt gen set on natural gas. One time I did try using propane just to see how it would work with a 20 pound tank and it seemed to do well. Don't remember what the size of the hose but I think it was 3/8 inch.

It's fine, I use mine in a 55 Gal so you have plenty even if you decide to go to a bigger tank. Enjoy these are the best heaters.

Consider looking at the Fluval 106 which is good for tanks up to 25 gallons.

The 10 watt is too much for your tank. I had mine in a 3 gal and it was too warm.

My 24 inch long is exactly 24 inch , I have a 55 gallon corner aquarium and it looks incredible, I do run 3 bulbs in it , the blue colored light for it is great and the night time light is perfect for fish , I would get 48 inch if it fits on your glass . 2 24 's would not look neat to me on top

yes you can operate it from a 20 pound or a 30 pounds or even larger but you need to order the hose and regulator that they sell with the Mr buddy heater you can order the hose and regulator separate just be aware that this heater depending on how cold it is will use up a 20 pound tank within 4 days if it is cold outside I put mine on a large tank with a regulator remember you definitely need the regulator if the tank does not have one hope this helped you

The 24x12 fits my 20 gallon tank, just measure the top of your tank and go by that.

Hello P Smith, I apologize, I was on vacation and could not get to your email. Are you still looking for the size of the tank ?

Due to the manual's space requirements around the machine, you need a space that is 24" wide, 16" tall, and 18" inches deep. There's enough airflow from the machine to dissipate the heat if it has that much room.

It was taller than my tank (about 20"). I had to send it back and get a smaller one for my 60 gallon.

I am using 150w for a 40 gal tank (but it has only about 20 gal water in it).

3/4" should be just fine, it is not up to code, and you will get less than the listed power, but it will work fine to replace an 80 gal storage tank.It takes 52K BTU to heat 80 gallons by 77 degrees, with a 70% efficient water heater. With a 'first hour' rating of 120 gallons it is 78K BTUYou can get 79K BTU at the end of 100' of 3/4" pipe (or equal, with fittings). Code for this heater would require 1" for a run of more than 10'As a note, the efficiency listed is a best case running full power.

The internal tank holds 1.6 gal. I converted my generator for EXTENDED running after viewing http://www.pinellaspowerproducts.com/view/YEFFUELKIT24/

Sorry, we have a 250 gal tank also, and use it for cooking and supplemental heat also.

I bought the 24" for my 30 gal tank. It said 24"-36" I believe. The light was 24" and the legs extended out the sides so it would fit up to 36". Great light but if you have a 77" tank I doubt that 48" will work for you.
