Rating Snapshot
Review this Product
Customers say
Customers overwhelmingly report the heater fails to raise water temperature adequately, with many describing cold water around 65-71 degrees when 75-78 degrees is required. Several units stop working within minutes or never activate despite proper setup. A few customers praise the protective case design and easy installation, but these positives are vastly outweighed by widespread frustration over unreliability and ineffectiveness. Many express concern about repeated failures and potential health risks to their animals. Overall, most reviewers strongly caution against purchasing due to consistent performance failures.

I keep my 40 gallon turtle tank outside and it’s about half way filled do you recommend using two to keep the water at the right temperature all day or will one do? Again I have my tank outside day and night 24/7

Hi! Would this be good for a 75 gallon tank for my baby yellow bellied slider??
- Yes this will for fine for your 75 gallon tank I got two of these in mine one on one side and another on the other and there perfectly keeping my entire water the same temp

How many gallons does one heat up? I have a 40 gallon tank filled a 3rd of the way and I just wanna know if I need only one or two ?
- One, I have two in a 55 gallon and it warms that just fine.

How high does the temperature go to? I'm wondering because I have a turtle, and the temperature of the water needs to be about 80 or higher.
- According to the package information, the heater is preset to 78º. When the water temperature reaches the preset, it automatically turns off. You can monitor the water temp with a thermometer. I understand they also live in lakes or ponds; without a heater?

How many gallons will this keep unthawed in an outside kiddie pool during the winter.
- Hi there, please call the Zilla team at (888) 255-4527 so we can learn more about your situation and properly assist you. Thank you!

If this has to be used in the water, will this keep our turtle habitat at the recommended 80-85 degrees, or just the water? Also, I understand that basking area should be kept around 85-90 degrees. Will I need a separate heater, or an out of water heater?
- The heater is preset to 78F and will keep the water at that temperature. For the basking area, you will need a separate basking light or heater that is out of the water. Please call the Zilla team at (888) 255-4527 so we can get details on your situation and provide better guidance.

I just got a 10g tank and filled it halfway with water and put your heater in. There was red light but turned off after 5 seconds and it doesn’t do anything
- The heater is preset to 78F and should light when heating. If the temperature is not getting to 78F, please call the Zilla Technical/Warranty Team at 888-255-4527 as the heater has a one year warranty.

can this be used outside of water? or does it have to be submerged to work
- The Reptile Heater cannot be used outside of water. You CANNOT use this item safely without it being submerged.

I just bought this heater and the light is not turning on. Does it have to be a certain temp for the heater to turn on?
- The heater is preset to 78°F and shatter resistant. It is equipped with an automatic internal safety shut off to prevent overheating. If you think the room or habitat temperature is below 78°F so that the heater should be turning on, there may be a problem. Please call the Zilla Technical/Warranty Team at 888-255-4527. This heater does have a one year warranty.
