[Jorsan]

One that is hooked to a controller, no matter who makes it.

Exactly. There are no reliable heaters in this hobby. They fail all too often and can take thousands in livestock with them. I would get a middle of the road one and connect it to a Ranco. You could even connet the Ranco to a reef controller so you have additional control and warnings, ie a text message if the temp goes above/below a set point.

what about the titanium ones?

[Fishamatank]

Always a titanium IMO, at least you won't have to worry about it shattering.

I will add that many suggest going with two lower wattage heaters versus one full wattage heater...that way if one fails, it will be much less likely to cook your tank.
