Will keep an eye on it but should I be worried, how fast should I raise the temp or just let the heaters warm things back up?

i dont have heaters right now on any of my tanks lol youll be fine with slowly raising things youd be surprised how temperate your livestock can be

With it being cooler at night, I keep the heaters on as I like to leave the windows open and both tanks are right beside them.

Things look good so far though.
