Hi,

I live in Brisbane Australia. I recently bought a baby red tiger
oscar. Does it require a heater? It is quite warm here in summer,
take today for instance it was about 30 degrees celcius and very
humid. However it does get as low as 12 degrees celcius in Winter. I
was once told that oscars don't require heaters, but I have heard
stories on these news groups of people's oscars smashing their
heaters! Maybe these people live in areas where it snows, can someone
clarify this for me?

Thanks.

Whether you need a heater or not will depend on how cold the room it is
kept in gets in winter. If it drops below 22°C, 20°C at a pinch, I would
get a heater. As too it getting broken, stick it in a corner behind a bog
rock making sure there is a flow of water from the bottom and out the top.
