What size heater for a 36 gallon tank

Check dimensions of your tank before you decide, my 250w is fairly long I have. 40 gallon breeder, works well, I think 150 or 200 watt will be okay in your tank but again check dimension of tank and of heater to see if it fits vertically

sorry bought this for a 10 gallon not sure about a 36 gallon. Might call or go into your local pet shop and find out than compare prices. My local Petco is cheaper on some things then Amazon is.

I would go with at least the 50 watt. Probably the 100 would be better. You can always put it a little bit diagonally in the tank. it is ok to fully submerge even the top part. I would consider going with 2 50watt heaters with one on either end of the tank for a more even heating effect. Plus both heaters would last longer because neither one would have to work as hard.

A 200 should do fine for a 50 gallon. I run a 150 in my 30 and it has no problems maintaining the temp at all.

You have a 46 gallon aquarium, be careful not to buy a lid that says 36 on it, that means it's a 36 gallon and the top wont fit yours.

I'd personally get a smaller one. This article says 100watts is too much for a 10 gallon tank. Here's the reference article - http://www.thatpetplace.com/fish-tank-heaters-article

Any tank from a 30 lb to a 1000 gal will work. To choose the right size you need to consider how much you will be using this heater, How big the space is to be heated. Your local propane gas company can help you determine which size is best for you.

This size heater is for a soft side, mid fill waterbed that looks like a regular mattress. If you have a wooden framed waterbed (hardside) you'll need a 300 Watt heater. If your existing 300 Watt heater is not doing the job, it is probably defective.

There's multiple sizes selectable here. I prefer yo run two undersized heaters so if the thermostat goes bad i in one it won't cook the fish. For a 39 gallon I'd think you'd want like two 100w heaters.

I would say definitely not. I have the 36-48" single bright on a 3 ft tank, 30 gal. I feel the light is just adequate and I'm glad I didn't get the 24-36". The light doesn't spread out a lot either so I would think you would want to light full length of your tank with 2 x 36-48s. Even with that, growing plants will not be an option. Hope this helps.

You would need the 48" to properly span the tank. The 36" would not cover the whole length and would have to sit on top of the glass.

No it will not. I would get the 36" fixture for a 36" tank. Makes sense doesn't it? You have a little bit of adjustment, but not that much.

I don't know about a 36,000 gallon pool. I have a 28,000 gal pool and works fine.

I believe this heater will be way too much for your small tank. I use this in winter only for 20 gal tank for a turtle. Hope this helps. Don't fry your fish!

My aquarium is 36" wide... and the light provides plenty of light, on hot days the lights warm the water - depending on the fish or the environment you have you may then opt to run the blue light's (moon light) setting only. Otherwise you should have plenty of simulated reef light.

If you are planning a low maintenance tank then the 36" fixture should be sufficient. If you are going high tech then I'd go for the 48" because of the depth of your tank. If you don't know the difference between the two then you need to do a bit of research first.

A 150 watt heater should suffice for this size of tank if you are going to keep tropical fish not cool water varieties (such as goldfish). The main thing to remember is to keep a constant temperature and water conditions. I listed below a few good websites for beginners. My advice is to do a lot of research on the fish you want to keep and set the tank up appropriately to the types you want to have. Also remember to cycle your tank before adding any fish and after the tank is up and running do regular water changes and tank maintenance.

Look at the size chart, 300-watt only good to 80-85 gallons. You would need something like 2 500-watt heaters or 1 1000-watt heater. Good luck.
