no, uncle show me the his sample tank near the entrance. He told me that CRS no longer need chiller or fans, is old fashion way to breed. Won't die or drop color.

But I had never try before, maybe someone can ask them again and again.

I don't think there create a lot of bubble in sample tank. because their sample is less then 1ft tank? very simple and 1 or 2 plant only if remember correctly.

Think about it. If CRS so easy, then why still have folks having problems and buying chillers? Their prices will also be like Malayan or Cherry shrimps.

CRS can survive in a tank without chiller or fan. But to breed and not lose colour? I don't think so.

It's not easy to keep them alive under 27 degree which I have tried previous, cause 25-26, my tank always misted up. Has stopped for 5 years also. Spent too much on high grade crs.

So better to invest in a chiller for long running.

I had 4 sets of chillers and IF and micron filter cartridge etc, all kept Inside storeroom due to save $$$ in electrical bill. I will think try ask some one to tryout,lol
