that temp is fine. my tank is normally aroudn that. a lot of people keep their tank at that. my tank got to 86 degrees once and everyone lived.

Thanks HNF2K so 81 or 82 is ok and no fan is needed?
Thanks again Andy

yes, it is fine now. but remember it is winter. in the summer your tank might get a little bit hotter. try to keep it at 83 max.

If temp becomes a problem try removing your glass tops. If you already have done this you can add a small pc fan. Go to like an electronic store and tell them what your doing they can help you out on how to hook it up.
