Hi all, I don't own a SW tank yet, but I'm gathering as much info as possible....
now, I've always seen wonderful and HUGE SW tanks(I'm talking about 800 L and above )....and I always wondered at how they managed to keep the temp stable , do they use giant heaters? and are there any tricks concerning heating giant aquariums? because my dream is to have a huge tank my self....lol, but alas! no money

800 L is only about 211 gallons, not exactly huge but average for a marine tank. Standard heaters work just fine and most people will use several to keep up with the temp requirements in cool weather.

OK, what if it was much more bigger?
