I have an established 10 gallon fowler tank with a 50 watt heater. I also have a 10 gallon tropical and a 6.5 gallon betta tank, both have heaters (50 watt) running. I currently have a 20 gallon fowler cycling, with a 100 watt heater running.
Dumb question coming. I'm in a warm climate so in the summer, they are running but never on as all are preset to 78 degrees. So, when they are not running, do they generate less electricity? I can't seem to get a Google answer, all I read is aquarium heaters generate electricity. I'm thinking when they are off, the use "vampire" energy like many household appliances?
