    You can by two small 15 gallon heaters and place one on each side about halfway down the tank wall for the best circulation of heat. As for the filter it should be premade to be long enough if it is big enough for your aquarium, if not it will come with a removable section so that you can lengthen or shorten the intake tube.

    I didn't even know you could do that with a heater. I always figured id get electrocuted if the wires were in the water. does it have to be a special heater?
