Would this work for a four gallon or is it to big?

Yes it would work great for a 4 gallon. I purchased this for a 3 gallon tank. I went with this heater as it came highly recommend and it seems like all the other "small" fish tank heaters tend to be break and over heat or short out a lot.

I'm sure it would - if it fits... I don't know how tall that 4 gallon is, but you can easily double-check that.

I have one mounted concealed from view in the filter/pump compartment of a Fluval Spec III (2.6 gal) and it works flawlessly. Should be fine in a 4 gallon. It's large, but it's flat.

I'm using it in a 3 gallon Tetra Cube. As long as it's submerged horizontal or vertically, and not touching substrate, it'll work. The heater is 6.5" tall x 2" wide. I like it because, it heats to a set temperature; if the tank is too warm, it shuts off. I've been using it for a month, checking with a thermometer, and it's been spot on 80, as set for my Betta.

Candra, I am running it in a 3.5 gal tank and it works just fine...smallest one I found with the best warranty.

Depends on the size of the tank. Would recommend two fixtures of the 16" model for a 4 footer, and one fixtures of the 24" model for a 3 footer. Hope this helps!

We bought it for our 10 gallon tank. I'm not sure if it would work with a larger tank, but I would guess not.We're very happy with it, though. (we did, however, add a couple corner brackets and rubber drawer liner to be sure the tank doesn't fall off.)

it will work for any gallons of tank but the bigger the tank the longer it take to suck the water out. It clean the poop and left over food that fall into the gravel

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

The smallest you can find. We use the,4 gallon size. A bit big but it works OK.

Unfortunately I cannot help here. I had bought this for an aquarium just to see if it would help. It was too large. Good luck with your searching.

yes but you will have to go slow. I use it on a 3 gallon now and then and it is slow but does the job.

It has worked perfect and reliably for my 5 gallon betta tank, but it could possibly be too powerful for your use. Also, it's rather large in size, it would take up a lot of tank space.

I think this will be too small for your purposes. I would look for something that has 4 gal per minute flow. Our is primarily used for a workroom in the garage.

Hi I am not sure. I have only tried it with 39 gallon and it works great with those. I didn't have the smaller size.

It would definitely work for a 15 gallon. It actually isn't too wide. I think it would work out fine and clean your tank much fast and and efficient. It good up to a 55 gallon and I actually have a 60 gallon but it does the job great! I love this product and recommend it to anyone with the proper tank size.

Hi,I have a 10 gallon tank and it's fine! I didn't think there would be a smaller one. It definitely does the job. X

Yes I think it would work for you ok. Just don't fill it full. 4 gal. Is heavy. Just go with 2 gal. First time and see how that works. Very easy use and well made. I have one acre and it's great.

I looked at a Whirlpool RO tank at Lowes, but it was not a 4 gallon storage tank like the one I was replacing and just purchased---and according to the company (via Lowes telephone call), they do not make a 4 gallon tank. Don't know if this helps.

It won't hurt but its not necessary. The large size is meant for a 110 gallon tank or larger! I use a small one in my 60 gallon tank and it works great.

Yes, it will. It's a little overkill, but it can easily be set up to work with as small a tank as you want.
