Temperature questions?
I was wondering what temperature everyone is keeping their reef tanks at?
I have mine at 77. Is this too cold for most corals? When diving in the tropics the water temp is usually >80. I was just reading Eirc Borneman's Aquarium Corals - and he thinks the temp should be 82-84. Also what is everyones temperature fluctuations? I added a second 400W MH after Christmas and my temp goes from 77 in the morning to 79 (never seen it 80) by early evening after the MH are off. Is this too much of a daily temperature fluctuation? Should I be using a chiller? Tanks
