AquaTop Quartz Platinum QPH-200 200 W Aquarium Heater
Model: QPH-200 (200 W)
AquaTop’s exact QPH-200 page as checked on 2026-11-02, its 2021 family manual and 2022 cutsheet support this model’s stated configuration and instructions. The model review records separate exact-item carton and label evidence. These sources do not confirm a current seller, package or offer.
This model lookup is separate from the questionnaire shortlist. It does not certify that this model meets your selected requirements.
Exact-model photograph is not verified. This reference lookup is text-only. The exact QPH-200 image and carton observation remain in the source-side review; no sibling or family image is substituted here.
The 200 W QPH-200 has a listed 13-inch body and official 40–60 US gallon band, repeated on AquaTop’s exact-model page. The model review’s exact-item carton image says 55 gallons maximum, so the reference preserves the mismatch and uses 55 only as a cautious comparison ceiling.

Documented model details
- AquaTop lists this exact QPH-200 as 200 W and 13 inches with a 40–60 US gallon band; the exact-item carton shown in the model review states 55 gallons maximum.
- The QPH-200 page and family documentation give an adjustable 68–93°F range; the manual allows fully submerged in-tank use vertically or horizontally in fresh or salt water.
- AquaTop calls the quartz-glass body shatter-resistant, and the exact-item image discussed in the review shows a QPH-200 / 200 W label.
Limits to weigh
- The official 40–60 gallon band and pictured 55-gallon package maximum do not agree. The detailed assessment uses 55 as a conservative ceiling; confirm current written instructions before relying on the higher official value.
- The stated 40-gallon lower edge is not a universal safe minimum and cannot be enforced by the finder’s maximum-only numeric rule; the model remains a reference, not a finder match.
- No numeric thermostat-accuracy tolerance, shatterproof claim, impact rating or confirmed included guard is established. Current US availability and seller packaging remain unverified.
Check before ordering
- Match the listing and carton to QPH-200 / 200 W and UPC 810281019055; resolve the 55-versus-60-gallon upper claim with current written manufacturer information before using the higher figure.
- Check the physical electrical label and supplied instructions, then measure the 13-inch body and waterline against the intended mounting location.
- Use a separate thermometer and do not infer actual heating performance from wattage, dial setting or a printed gallon maximum.
