AquaTop TQ-200W 200 W Thermo-Quartz Preset Aquarium Heater
Model: TQ-200W
The US-facing exact-model page identifies TQ-200W, 200 W, 110–120 V / 60 Hz, freshwater/saltwater use and a fixed 78°F preset. This lookup documents the exact configuration but does not verify a particular seller’s unit or package, or certify it against any questionnaire answer; the 55–75-gallon band is package sizing copy, not a stated safety threshold.
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 because its original exact image is mapped beneath the existing products/images directory, outside the adapter’s supported basename path. The detailed model review retains the individually inspected 200 W heater/package photograph; it identifies the package but does not establish scale, performance or every included component.
The exact TQ-200W is AquaTop’s 200 W configuration with a 75-US-gallon upper rating; its package image shows a 55–75-gallon band and fixed 78°F preset. The manual does not explain the lower package edge as a safety minimum, but the matcher cannot enforce that model-specific boundary, so this reviewed model is not an active recommendation.

Documented model details
- AquaTop’s exact page identifies TQ-200W as a 200 W heater rated up to 75 US gallons, with a 110–120 V / 60 Hz supply.
- The model-associated carton shows a 55–75-US-gallon band and a fixed 78°F preset, distinct from the TQ-100W and TQ-250W package bands.
- The shared TQ instructions say to mount with suction cups away from aquarium glass or gravel, form a drip loop/use GFCI protection, and check water at the opposite end with a separate thermometer.
Limits to weigh
- The current volume matcher cannot enforce the package’s model-specific 55-gallon lower edge; TQ-200W is therefore reference-only and is excluded from active questionnaire and purchase matches. The manual does not define 55 gallons as a minimum safe size.
- The setting is a fixed 78°F preset, not an adjustable interval; no numerical thermostat-accuracy tolerance is provided.
- Exact dimensions, minimum waterline, body material and shatterproof status are not established. Manufacturer cutoff statements are not independent safety or dry-operation test results.
Check before ordering
- Confirm the exact TQ-200W SKU and 200 W label; do not use the 250 W family card’s repeated TQ-200W suffix as evidence that the separate 250 W model is this one.
- Compare the offered carton with the 55–75-gallon marking and confirm the actual aquarium setup rather than relying on the 75-gallon ceiling as a heat-performance guarantee.
- Check the supplied unit’s electrical label, fixed 78°F setting and current TQ instructions; verify aquarium temperature independently after installation.
