Hi there, I keep a few aquariums in my garage and as a result, do use water heaters for those aquariums. My first thought when I read this though was already brought up, with the thermal burns. That would be my main concern. I suppose you could cover it in something to obstruct the possibility of the monitor coming in contact with it, but I was wondering if you, murriandindi, had any any issues like that as well with your water heater? I suppose it would be natural for the monitor to gravitate towards the hotter spot in the water, and obviously the closer to the heater the better. I mean, I've even burned myself, being a dumb dumb, on those heaters. They get HOT!
