However, keep in mind it may not attach very firmly, and you do not want it to float up. Do not place anything directly on it, as that could cause it to malfunction, but you might want to build a "cave" around it, to prevent it from floating up out of the water while it is heating. That would definitely cause it to malfunction! Otherwise, there are no issues with using it in a plastic tub, acrylic tank, etc. **Q: Would this product be able to heat a 40 gallon tank? I need one to heat my turtle's tank.** A: This heater can heat up to 30 actual gallons of water so if your turtle tank is half to three-quarters of the way full, then yes, it can. If your home is kept cooler than the average room temperature of 72 degrees, we would recommend going up a size in heaters to at least a 150 watt one. For more help, email petsupport@spectrumbrands.com. **Q: What are these broken up chemical film particles on surface of water after putting it in?** A: Sounds like you have a lot of protein in the tank that is causing an "oil slick" on the surface. It is unrelated to the heater, other than warmer water may be causing the particles to rise and form the slick. Do a partial water change of 25%. Feed less. **Q: Red light keeps turning on and off. Temp stays at 60. I returned it twice so are all of them broken?** A: No, the heaters are not broken, the thermometer is the issue. The red light will not stay on all the time as that would cause it to overheat the tank. It will go on and off every few minutes until it raises the temperature to between 76 and 80 degrees. Then it goes off for a little bit. This will happen more frequently as it is raising the temperature and less often once it gets there. If your home is actually 60 degrees, you will need a larger heater or two heaters in order to properly heat the tank. Heaters are calibrated for an average room temperature of 72 degrees. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genial *by R***O on Reviewed in Mexico on 29 October 2022* Se lo compré a mi tortuga ya que hace no mucho le había pedido un calentador convencional de pecera pero lo rompió, no sé si porque el cristal era frágil y ella se subió encima de él pero esta es una excelente opción porque a las tortugas les encanta subirse en todo, así que no creo que lo rompa. Lo único es que siento que no calienta tanto como los calentadores para peces pero aún así he notado que mi tortuga está cómoda con la temperatura. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does not work. UPDATE It was just a lemon *by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on 20 May 2021* This product does not work. I installed it according to instructions and waited the correct amount of time before turning it on and it just doesn't work at all. I have this for a hatchling YBS 10 gallon tank. Cannot figure out how to contact the seller either.UPDATE: Turns out I was looking for a contact for Tetra when Amazon was the seller. My bad! Any way I initiated a return and they sent me a replacement that works perfectly. It arrived in 2 days and I can drop off the defective one within about 3 weeks at a UPS without even printing a label so I don't even have to deal with refunds for postage or anything. It took about 5 seconds to handle once I realized I was being an idiot.Works great, automatically set to 78 F which is perfect for my baby slider and I have a temp gun to check. So far as soon as the red indicator light comes on I check it and it is right on 77F, and then the indicator light turns off when the temp hits 79 so that is a nice tight little range. I love it. So does my baby. He's so small that he wedges himself between the cord and the side of the tank and passes out like a toddler.In case anyone was concerned, the red indicator light can be easily seen in daytime light but is not a nuisance in the dark. The cord is a nice length and very sturdy and the suction cups are large and powerful. The nice plastic casing around the heater will keep my hatchling from chomping on it when he gets bigger. You literally just tick it in the tank, fill her up, wait 15 min, plug in and you are done. 10/10 recommend, I just happened to get a lemon the first time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, easy to clean. *by D***Y on Reviewed in Canada on 8 February 2021* My turtle likes to sleep beside this heater. I've had it for a few months now since I bought it and it has been working well, keeps water temperature warm. Easy to clean if there's debris sticking to it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tetra 26445 Fauna Aquatic Reptile Heater For Frogs, Newts & Turtles,100 Watt,green - Exo Terra PT2478 Moss Ball - TetraFauna ReptoGuard Turtle Health Conditioner Block --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/253418882-26445-fauna-aquatic-reptile-heater-for-frogs-newts-and-turtles](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/253418882-26445-fauna-aquatic-reptile-heater-for-frogs-newts-and-turtles) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-20*
