hi . ours works excellent on a 75 gal tank , excellent so i imagine two would be great just dont overfeed and do regular water changes , definately use the uv when putting in new fish ! add a few bubblers we use the lighted underwater bubblers 24 inches and of course all depends on freshwater or saltwater tank , we use ours on africans and discus tanks , its a super quiet and very efficient filter sherry

You could, yes. But would be better off with a wet/dry sump system for a tank that large. Cannister maintanence is crucial without becoming a nitrate factory.

No, the 34 gallon tank will ONLY fit models with the 8' long bed. It cannot be used as an upgrade for the 25 gallon tank.

Its very possible to use this for a 250 gallon I have a 125 and use this 300 watt well below what's recommended for my tank size it keeps it very warm and its very durable I have large Oscars in my tank u can only imagine try contacting a pet smart and see what they think u may have to purchase 2 but its still great at the price amazon has it versus pet supply stores there normally $50-60 bucks at pet for just 1

Yes I have been running a 25watt heater for a long time in the back compartment and it is perfect I would recommend upgrading the lighting if you are using it for a reef but other than that it's a great little tank.

It all depends on how bright you want it. I have a 26 gallon tank and got 2 bulbs, but it makes the tank really bright. If your tank gets quite a bit of light from a nearby window or something, I think 1 bulb would be enough. Why not try it first with one bulb and if it's not bright enough, buy the 2nd one?

It should be ok..that filter is up to 40g.... That thing should keep your tank pretty clean. Plus you can adjust the flow so your not creating a whirlpool inside the small tank. IMO I'd upgrade to at least a 20 or 30 gallon... Hope I helped!!

I have one in my five gallon opposite the filter I would use two in a 15 or 20 gallon.

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

Yes you can. Make the first batch with 1/2 gal. and the second batch with a full gal.

Switching the heaters from tank to tank should be easy enough. Making sure there are no sudden temperature changes is the hard part. With two heaters in two identical tanks in the same room this might work, but only if the two heaters have exactly the same setting. This might not be true. Just a degree or two difference is enough to stress a fish (says some web pages). You should check that the two tanks are at the same temp with a really good thermometer. I have just one 2.5 gal tank and change about 10% of the water daily by drawing off a quart (with a turkey baster) then warming a quart jar of new conditioned water by putting the jar in the tank for half an hour or so.

Sorry not sure about your question... I love my tank I have two for my Bettas.

I don't see why not. We had 25k gallons above ground and this thing was amazing!

I used two for a 200 gallon aquaponics tank, with a timing of 5 minutes on 5 minutes off. They put out a lot of volume. I would think one would be enough for an emergency.

You sure can. I added one to mine. Just make sure it is a heater for under a five gallon tank

I should add I have a 425 and a 240 plus the 240 flow from the filter pump ... If you don't want corals you may be able to get away with just a 240

I can run three 40 gallon tanks and still have more to use, do not know on nine

I'm not sure, I have a 250 watt for 90 gallons which I am using in an outside pond - totally under water. And it's doing great. You really need to call a pet shop for the answer - sorry. Even if the wattage is overkill, it's oK ; it will not come on pass the setting you set. So if you set it on 76 degrees and the water in your tank is 78 degrees it just won't come on.
