Birchir temperature?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I keep mine at 77-79F (25-26C)..they do just fine with feeding every other day (or third day)..i noticed that they eat more when they have growth jumps, not when temp goes over 80F (summer) :)

Raising the temp. to 82 plus just raises metabolism and actually shortens their life time because of it i believe, i dont have any scientific article to back this claim, but usually a higher metabolism speeds up the rate at which they expel energy and die faster.
