10F. I would go from 80 to 90 each day, all summer long. The first week, I thought I would have a stroke, I panicked every second of the day. It was a fully stocked mature SPS tank, and I only lost one species. I had several pieces of it, they all RTN'ed. Other than that, the tank was fine. I wasn't, but I got over it. Now, I don't recommend this, and I did end up getting a chiller, but 3 degrees daily will not harm anything.
