A refractometer I say is a must in this hobby! don't use the thermometer stickers, actually get a in tank thermometer! Filter socks are a great idea! trying to figure out how to make them work on my end!
Sticker thermometers are the worst piece of "thing" in any aquarium! I don't know why it is still in the market. Glass and water can practically never reach thermal equilibrium, a.k.a that thing will always show glass temperature (which is going to be lower theoretically) and not the water temperature.
