So I currently have 60G tank with 30G sump running a single 200W heater. I'm looking at moving to a backup system just in case my heater fails and understand there are other added benefits such as slower temp drops and reduce thermal shock on water changes etc.
Any issue with just getting another 200W heater or do I need to replace and go with half size heaters? If half size is 100W each good setting primary to 77F and backup to 76F? Assume they both kick on if the temp drops below 76F in this case until each reach their appropriate temp?
