Jalli Titanium Aquarium Heaters : The Jalli Titanium Heater uses titanium tubing for fast heat conduction. The titanium tubing resists corrosion caused by salt water or PH fluctuation of water and will not crack due to impact or high temperature.
The heater has a built-in temperature sensing switch; if the heater accidently is exposed to open air during heating process, the temperature sensing switch will automatically cut off the power. After the heater returns back to normal temperature, it will then resume it's heating process.
Temperature controllers are used in applications where multiple heaters are needed, i.e. larger aquariums or central systems with a common sump.
The principle of operation is to use conventional aquarium heaters and bypass their integral thermostats by setting them to their highest settings, then plugging them into a separate controller.
Temperature control ranges 72 to 93 degrees fahrenheit.
This controller makes it simple to control and achieve the desired water temperature and keep it stable with the built-in thermostat.

AQUARIUM HEATER GENERAL INFO
Almost all aquariums require a heater to maintain a consistent water temperature. Aquatic life such as fish, coral, and other invertebrate need to be kept at certain stable temperatures. If the temperature of your aquarium gets below the required temperature of the organisms in your aquarium, the results could be very costly.
What temperature should your aquarium be? Different aquarium fish and invertebrates will need different temperature requirements. Fish, corals, and other invertebrates come from many different environments all over the world. To be the most successful with keeping these organisms the aquarium must replicate the environment they are from as closely as possible.
The temperature for tropical fish should be kept close to 78F/26C. Marine aquariums should also be kept at 78F/26C.
Some fish that are referred to as tropical are really subtropical. Some of the more common fish that fall in the subtropical category are; Cardinal Tetras, White Cloud Danio, Rosey Barbs, Variatus Platy, Dragon Gobies, and some marine Blennies. These subtropical aquariums should be kept at 72F/22C.
Discus fish should be kept in 82F aquariums .
Goldfish, Sunfish, Bass, and Kio are examples of coldwater fish. Coldwater aquariums typically are kept anywhere from 55F to 68F. An aquarium heater is typically not necessary for these fish, but aquarium chillers are used instead.
If your aquarium inhabitants are not kept at their proper temperature they could suffer, get sick, or even die. Your aquarium can give you signs that it needs a heater. The most common would be sick fish or lethargic fish. The most common disease is Ich (Ichthyophthirius multifilis) which can easily break out and become visible because the aquarium temperature has become too low. If you are not sure the heater you have is keeping the correct temperature it would be a good idea to use an aquarium thermometer.
What aquarium heater is best for you? The basic rule of 3-5 watts per gallon is recommended for keeping your aquarium at optimal temperatures. Cold rooms where the aquarium is kept will require more watts per gallon. For example, if you house is 75F and you need to heat a 55 gallon reef aquarium, then a 200 watt heater would be best. However, if the room is 68 degrees you may need a 300 watt heater.
Using more than one heater is advisable because heaters can fail and having a backup heater will keep your tank temperature from fluctuating wildly if one heater stops working.
When changing the temperature of your tank, proceed slowly. Do not turn the heater on for at least 15 minutes so the heater may reach the same temperature as the water. This is a good idea for all heaters and with glass heaters it will prevent the glass cracking from a massive temperature difference.
Sudden temperature changes will also stress fish and corals. Change the aquarium temperature over a period of days, even weeks if it is a dramatic change.
There are different heaters to be used in different applications. The most common is the submersible dial-in heater. Usually made of strong glass or sometimes titanium metal, these heaters can be placed completely in the aquarium near an area with high flow.
If you have a wet/dry filter, sump, or refugium the heater will do well if it is placed horizontally in the lower areas of the filter.
Planted tanked will often have cable or undergravel heaters. These are placed in the substrate to heat the roots of the live plants.
Inline heaters are plumbed into the water line of the aquarium filtration, often with canister filters such as the Fluval or Nu-Clear filter.
For larger tanks over 100 gallons, it can useful to use an heater with a separate controller. More versatile heaters will have a separate digital controller for the more professional aquatic setups.
If you have aggressive fish you might want a heater enclosed in a cage that protects the heater and the fish. Some fish like eels and knifefish like to rest against the heater--and a caged heater will protect these fish.
