Dehumidifier in a Fish Room

[daniella3d]

no, not really because you are putting the dry air outside, so you are basicelly removing humidity from the outside air since the dry air it not going inside your home.

That would be like exhausting the cool air from an AC unit outside the house...no point really and a waste of energy.

Mine also create quite a bit of heat but since it's my basement then it's not too bad.

You could be using a portable AC unit instead. These can remove humidity nicely and put out cold air at the same time you would just need to put the exhaust outside, so the hot air would go outside and the cold dry air would cool down your fish room.

I use both, I have central AC and a dehumidifier in the basement so my home is cool and dry.
