Running Filter + 25W Heater 24/7 — How Much Juice Am I Burning? 🐟⚡"

Help/Advice

Hey fish fam! I've got 6 black widow tetras and 2 Corydoras cruising around in my tank, and I’m starting to wonder—how much power am I really using if my filter and 25W heater are running 24/7? Anyone done the math or seen a spike in their electric bill from this setup? Curious if I should be worried or if it's just part of the hobby life.

Appreciate any insight from the energy-conscious aquarists out there! 🙌
