Highlighted Reviews
"The Aquascape device has an indicator light which glows red when it is heating and blue when it isn't. I like this feature very much, but because of it I know that it starts to heat up when the temperature is in the 45 degree range"
"I leave it off for a few hours, it works again but turns off again. So much to keeping my fish alive with this one. Do not recommend."
Bottom Line
The Aquascape 300 W Fish Pond De-Icer is functional but lacks stability over cold nights. It is generally not recommended due to its inconsistent performance.
