Heater Question | |
fishyguy Small Fry Posts: 2 Kudos: 3 Votes: 0 Registered: 08-Jan-2005 | This may sound a bit silly but I'm new at this fish thing and a bit paranoid. I just got a Marineland Dual-Temp 40-75 Precision Submersible Heater (300 Watt). What I need to know is whether the ENTIRE unit may be submerged or whether the top part with the cord attached has to remain above water.<br>thanks |

Its just a safety precaution. |
