depending on which country u are in? If in SG, it should be safe not to have heater on.. I mean, gf actually are "cold" water fish.. so cooler temperature is better for them..

if i am not wrong, warmer water will have lesser dissolved oxygen.. lower dissolved oxygen may affect the growth of the wen to some extent..
