Hello,
I have an EVO 13.5 with a 1.0 sicce pump and the 1st chamber intank filter thing. I have an Aqueon 100 watt heater in the third chamber with the pump and my top off. Historically my tank usually runs at 78.4 to 78.6 degrees. The last few days I have noticed it up to 79 degrees and this morning it was showing 79.3 and the heater was on. So thinking something is wrong with the heater I go and buy a brand new one and put in in the third chamber. I have two thermometers in the third chamber reading 79 degrees and I plug the brand new heater in and it turns on! now the chamber is reading 79.3 again. I tried just unplugging the heater completely and the tank went back to 78.4. I'm completely stumped as to why two heaters are turning on when the water is reading 79 degrees.
Any thoughts perhaps. thinking either both heaters are garbage or both thermometers. If anyone has a suggestion on an adjustable heater perhaps that they knows will fit in the third chamber with the pump?
