I always prefer to go with two or more underpowered heaters. I have 4 350W heaters running in my 450, for instance. Hard to boil a discus, LOL, but not impossible. My current preferred heaters are the Renas, which I've had no problems with. Newer Ebos I've had nothing but problems with and stopped buying them at least a year ago, maybe longer. Just as a frame of reference, I've over 1,000 gallons in various tanks, so it gets a little expensive if you have to keep replacing heaters.
