Hi, would 4x Eheim Jager 300 watts work for a 2800 litre/740 gallon tank with a 690 litre/182 gallon and a 180 litre/50 gallon frag tank attached? The total water volume is around 3700 litres or 980 gallons. Trying to raise the temperature by about 10 degrees celcius.
 
No, you will want closer to 2000 watts. Depends on glass acrylic , lids etc
 
I love the Orlushy on Amazon. I have several running for 4 years without issue.

I would start with 4x of the 500 watts
