Community tank temps?
Hello
As you know i'm setting up this community tank and was wondering what range of temp would suit most community fish? Only problem i have is that the lowest temp i can get is 25c. Thats with the heater not on. After the lights come on the temp slowly rises to 26c. Is this ok?

Was thinking about Corys, but i know they prefer it cooler? Nettys Albino Corys appear to be doing well at 27c though.

Cheers:) I cant actually get it any cooler LOL. At least it saves on electric as the heater is never on:)

Its all the heat in your house with all the reptiles I have corys in every tank and they are all at 27 and do fine. The community is always between 26-27
