Default Heater placement on your Aquapod or JBJ.

For those that use a heater in their Aquapod or JBJ Nano tank.
Where are you placing your heater.
In or outside the chamber???

r the aquapod or JBJ rear chambers the same as the oceanic bio cube? i keep my stealth heater in the 1st chamber. i had to snap out a couple of the slats that seperate the upper and lower intake chambers but that took 2 mins, then i just slid it down thru the hole and it was all set.

it seems to really keep the temp at a regulated/steady rate. rarely moves more than a degree.

i just helped my sister in law set up her 8 gallon cube and she stuck one of those mini tetra 50watt heaters in there, keeps the temp at a steady 79degrees.
