You may be over-heating. I use K&H heaters that are sized for the tub and sized for the weather zone I live in. I use the 500W heaters in the 50 gal tubs for the sheep and calves, setting on the bottom. The large 250 gal tub gets a 750 or 1000 watt one set to float (I forget now which size I bought). When it gets really cold, I may have to knock a skiff of ice off the tub but that is pretty rare. Plus, they come with a 2 year warranty. Had to use it once out of a 1/2 dozen heaters.

I had started out with the 1500W heaters at first but was amazed at the electric bill, had to be a better way.
