Stormhawk: Yup rams are nice and attractive too.. I just came across joe's inka! Nice nice.. http://apistogramma.weebly.com/uploa...96005_orig.jpg

Henry: I now know why biotope is fully air-condition... Heheee
Our temperature in singapore always unpredictable.
It's better to place your tanks away from the window.

Yup you guys have a point. Keeping fish cool is better, but alas, having a chiller is not something I want to spend money on. In any event, the Rams are starting to pair off.

Alternatively, you can check out the Mergus cichlid II and see which species is tolerant to warm temperatures. I believe the borelli, agasizzi, cacatuoides (domesticated ones), breitbinden (the ones from Colombia) are quite tolerant of heat. On the same note, the galaxis I got from NKS have bred. Even with the heat wave in KL, they are quite happy.
The bitaeniata from the same shipment seem rather happy as well, if only there were more females from the 6 pieces I took home (there was only 2, even with careful selection)

We can switch to fan instead of using chiller save cost.
Just place your tanks away from window and electric products will be fine
Room temperature is good enough for me.
