Hey Michael,Not at all. Extremely too powerful.I bought two for my 75 gallon for flow, i setup one and immediately took it out after 30 sec., made a complete mess of my tank. These things must be made for like 200 gallon tanks.just get a good canister filter, eheim classics are the best. you'll get plenty of flow with em.good luck,-anthony

Hello Thomas, Thank you for your inquiry. This is what we recommend. We generally recommend that on average, you turn over your aquarium volume four times per hour. This means that if you have a 30 gallon tank, you need a pump and filter with flow rates of around 120 gph. so if your tank is 120 gallons then a 480 gph. This is a suggestion of course. We hope that you have found this answer helpful. Thank you, Gabriela

Its very possible to use this for a 250 gallon I have a 125 and use this 300 watt well below what's recommended for my tank size it keeps it very warm and its very durable I have large Oscars in my tank u can only imagine try contacting a pet smart and see what they think u may have to purchase 2 but its still great at the price amazon has it versus pet supply stores there normally $50-60 bucks at pet for just 1

Beware of your tank size. I use it at a 1.5Gal bowl under the gravel, room temp is 59F, with this heater, it heats up the water to 72F.

Maybe. The Hydor is fairly large and 1050 gph in a 40 gallon freshwater tank may be too much...I have a reef tank and more flow is typically better. My Hydor gave me a few problems by stalling and required frequent cleaning, but again, this may be due to the saltwater. I switched to the Tunze 6045, which is a lot quieter and hasn't stalled once. They are more expensive but there is the 6025 that's reasonable and is 740gph. I'd recommend doing more research for freshwater tanks, but I'd think that 740gph would be good for a 40 gallon tank.

One gallon tank? This would be seriously too much for that. I'm using it in a 26 gallon tank. There must be smaller and cheaper heaters for small tanks.

I would say definitely not. I have the 36-48" single bright on a 3 ft tank, 30 gal. I feel the light is just adequate and I'm glad I didn't get the 24-36". The light doesn't spread out a lot either so I would think you would want to light full length of your tank with 2 x 36-48s. Even with that, growing plants will not be an option. Hope this helps.

I use on a 30 gallon taller tank and it is very bright, really lights up the tank very nice:)

yes this would work well for a 40 gallon aquarium, the cascade is 1000 recommended for aquariums up t o 100 gallons. so if you have a 40 gallon i would recommend the cascade 700 this will work great and it will save you money.

I am using it in a 50 gallon tank. I think the next size would be best if going any larger than this.

Yes. Is very quiet. As long as you have water flowing in and out of course. Otherwise it will make a little bit of noise. Obviously water evaporates, so you would need to fill up a little more water. But the tank totally love it. It works great.

I use it for a five gallon tank and it is great. A one gallon tank might be to small. Prior to getting this I had a flat heater that was under my gravel that auto censored to keep a tank at the right temp. The only problem with it was I needed to have more control of the temp in the. You might try finding it, sorry but I don't remember what kind it was, but I know it was for smaller tanks.

I have mine in a 3 gallon tank but I think it would probably work in a 1 gallon. It does not have an on/off switch but I have mine plugged into a timer scheduled to turn on in the evening and off at bedtime.

It's perfect for an aquarium but a pond is a little to much. Mine is in a 40 gallon aquarium.

I have a 36 gallon tank and, although it works, it does a minimally good job. You need a commercial system.
