[salty guy]

So what temp do you all keep your tank?

[lordofthereef]

all my tanks stay at a constant 80 degrees. well, all except for the discus. they stay at 89 degrees.

 

[tru conch]

i keep mine right around 78, but not past 80.

I try to keep mine around 80, usually it dosnt get higher than 81, but sometimes, like when it gets hot and Im not here to adjust the A/C it has shot up to 86, with no ill affects I might add, but I wouldnt suggest keeping it that high for a long period In the past I ran it at 84 after all the debates on temp, but I found that I got way more algae and the sandbed would release way too many bubbles. They say the average for natural reefs is around 81.3. HTH
