Hey. I’ve also read various differing views on the temperature to keep CPD’s. Some people don’t even use a heater! :? I keep my water at 24 degrees celsius after reading about their native habitat being between 22 and 24 degrees celsius here – http://rmbr.nus.edu.sg/rbz/biblio/55/55rbz131-140.pdf (4.63MB pdf, may take a while to download on slow connection). I’ve read this elsewhere on other forums aswell. I found my first fry yesterday. :) They seem happy at this temperature but it occasionally creeps up to 25 when its hot outside so I might even drop it another degree at some point. From all the information I have gathered I can definitely say they require heated water. :)
