Hi all

This is very off topic and not sure anyone can help but I thought I would ask anyway. I have a fish tank that is meant to be tropical. Its a 90l with a heather thats for tanks up to 100l. For some reason even though we have the heater at 26 the tank sits at around 22-21. Its brand new heater the first one did the same so we got it swaped weve had two other heater brands in it and they all do the same (We thought the old heaters were just old and couldn't handle it.)

So are we doing something wrong??? Its got filter flow which we thought might be hindering it so turned the filter up and hasn't changed anything. Any help is appreciated :)
 
Tried two different thermometers and both came back at the exact same temp

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
