i have a 75g in our 860 sq/ft house. its not a big tank, but combined with a small house, makes for a big humidity change. i plastic my windows off in winter which helps keep the ice off of them, and as for the humidity, weve gotten used to it. its to the point now when i stay at someone elses house for any length of time my skin dries out. bonus is youll never have to buy a humidifier!

With a designated tank room I now exhaust humid air outside while drawing cold fresh air inside. Prior to this we used to run a dehumidifier but it was adding around $20 a month to our electricity bill.
