the reason why i use aircond because i have multiple tank in my room
planted tank and shrimp tank
using 1hp and temp set at 25
and my room is pretty small also
so it doesn't take long for the room temp to cool down
electric bill wise i think around rm20 extra per month
*
I think if using chiller would be also costing more or less the same amount. More over using aircondition can cool few tank at the same time together.

BTW, Happy New Year, Happy Holiday.

23-24'c in air cond room, had like 20 crs and cbs, after a year they didnt berried nor breed and it all died out, and i stop keeping them.

also i had a few other tanks back then, blue dream, blue jelly, mixed them together and all the blue dream strain had gone and they are all blue jelly.

my yellow gold, chocloate just dont breed and died out although they had the perfect water parameters

haha have u tried cherry?
i have both but my amano is with tetras so i guess even if they did have larva they wont survive

whereas my malaya are only in my shrimp tanks
*
Not tried cherry.... Ppl says it's the easiest.

Mine is Malaya, coz can differentiate them by their back stripes
