	Getting a heater in.....
katieb Fish Addict Posts: 697 Votes: 69 Registered: 03-Jul-2004	My tank is an Eclipse 5 gal hex with a built in filter and bio-wheel. Unfortunately this makes it near impossible to add a heater with out doing something drastic or obnoxious looking. Any one have any idea how to get around it? Also, how many watts for a 5 gal? http://www.marineland.com/products/diagram_ecom/diagram_pics/new/ecl_hex5.gif I'll do graffiti, If you sing to me in French.

I want the cord to come out the back, the filter gets in the way though. I definatly think i can figure something out though. Thanks for the help guys I'll do graffiti, If you sing to me in French.
