I ordered the same one (Hydor Theo 25 watt adjustable, submersible) online yesterday from Petco for my 5.5 gallon tank. It was on sale for $20, but the shipping was free because I ordered a bunch of other stuff along with it.
I read a few reviews of this heater not sufficiently heating tanks even at the highest setting when it is very cold in the room :/ It can get down to 65 degrees in the room he's in. Anyways, I would really love to know how this heater works out for you and anyone else who may have it! I won't have mine for another week or two.
On Amazon, The Elite Mini Heater 25 w.. I got it for like 8$ on Amazon- loved it.. Replaced it with a 50w same thing b.c bigger tank and colder room :) Hope this helps And it is adjustable.

I have the Hydor for my 1 gallon bowl and it's been working wonderfully. The temperature setting is pretty accurate, usually only off by about 1-2 degrees. :)

I have heard many good things about the Hydor, indeed. But I think some of the reviews have to do with the size of the tank and the temperature in the room. I have a larger 5.5 gallon tank, and the temperature in the room usually stays at about 68-69 degrees, but will sometimes drop to about 65. But if it doesn't work out, I can always return it and get a different one or a 50watt. I'm just really hoping it does the job because my little DaBaDee is pretty cold right now :(

Well, I have the heater set at 80F, and it keeps my water around 78-80F. My tank is certainly smaller than yours but the room temperature here is around 62-64F, haha. I hope everything works out for you!

Thank you! Hopefully the heater will work just as well for me since our tank size vs. room temp seem to balance each other out. How low/high can you set the heater?

I cant find that brand in an adjustable, only the preset :(
