I have a 90 gallon aquarium with a 20 gallon sump and I'm trying to figure out what size heater I should get the ambient room temperature is 64 to 67° at night and 67 to 78° during the day

All right cool I've been getting a lot of different answers on ways to do it. and I was thinking about one way that I seen a lot of people saying is to do two heaters. and I was thinking to either do two 150 watts or two 200 Watts. I've also been told to do two 300 watt heaters which that one I think is a little much and I was thinking about doing eheim's I know their glass heaters and I've seen a lot of people say to do the titanium but I am on a slight budget for a few months so I was going to upgrade later on but definitely would be doing a external control either way but anyways thanks for your input I appreciate itI run a similar setup and use a single 300W finnex titanium heater. This style doesn't have a built in thermometer, so an external heater controller is required.
All right thanks I definitely will keep that in mind and yeah I know they're freaking long the 300 watt I know is about the size of my arm and length which is very long for heater that's why I was thinking of doing like two 150s or two 200s I know thay are a lot shorter than the 300 wBetween the eheim and finnex, for the 300W version there is only a $10 difference.
Plus the eheim is about a foot longer for the 300W version.
Eheim work, and work amazingly well, they are just super long. Just something to keep in mind when purchasing eheim heaters.
300W, or preferably 2x150 watt on a controller for redundancyI have a 90 gallon aquarium with a 20 gallon sump and I'm trying to figure out what size heater I should get the ambient room temperature is 64 to 67° at night and 67 to 78° during the day
