Sure. I would just be careful as the uv sterilizer portion of this is what was faulty and killed my fish.

That would be awkward at best, as the small cylinder is the base upon which this heater rests. The small cylinder valve is vertical, and the large cylinder valve is horizontal. I suggest looking for something like the Mr Heater F242100 Tank-Top Heater, 8,000-15000-BTU.

It won't work for your application. This heater is meant for indoor tanks. For 200gal at 20F you'll need some sort of de-icer.

I do not think this works with tank-less heaters. You can confirm this on Grundfos website

I have not had a problem with the heat lamp on this. So long as the temperature is maintained appropriately it should be fine. Just make sure that whatever is occupying the tank has a place to cool down when it/they need to and that there is enough air circulation.

Hi! Yes, a heater can be used with this tank. I use a long, slim black one...........can't remember the make but think it is a fluval.

Yes. The unit is not a traditional heating element heater. You can touch the unit and you will not get burned.

I'm not sure about a tank that small. As long as there is enough water to cover the heater and keep it cool I'm sure it would work.If you decide to try it I would recommend getting a submersible thermometer and monitoring the temp to ensure it doesn't get to warm.

Not a problem... I'm using mine in a 6 gallon acrylic tank and I'm very happy with it. Keeps the tank at 75 in a 60 degree room through the winter. I would recommend this heater you wont be sorry.

I don't see why not. However, you will need a 240 volt circuit and have to wire that heater for 240 volt operation. The thermostat requires this voltage.

I am not sure if it would work or not. It does not work on my heater. It trips after every 5 minutes of usage. I was very disappointed with it, but for now I will keep it to see if I can use it with other devices. I would check the wattage or amperage limits on it before I buy it. I did not do the research on it, and the information I received on it with device does not include it as best I can tell.

I would not. It states that the heater needs to be mounted on a wall (vertical). The heater generates convection currents to remove some of the heat. If you take that away the unit could overheat.

I think you could. But I would be very careful when you turn the heater on. You have to push the button a little hard which could make it unstable. Maybe you could use the remote control feature only.

Checking at www.Rheem.com i can only find one "short" tank heater, it is 30 gal electric. Maybe you should consider a tankless heater.

No because a heater would make the water too hot since it is a 1 gallon tank. The fish would be unhealthy.

Yes, you can, all it gonna do heat your water fast. And I like that, I always like high wattage over low wattage doesn't matter tank size, it makes my fish comfortable fast. Imagine you are in a room with size 100 sqft with a room heater for 1000 sqft, your heater gonna make room heat fast and shutdown till temp goes down again.

I don't believe so. Mainly these mini heaters are intended for 1 gallon tanks and up, anything smaller will cook whatever you have in there. I think you'll be fine without one. I keep my Betta's in gallon cylinder glass containers in room temp and sometimes colder and they are perfectly fine.
