78F to 85F,

I'm losing some nice PPEs and I'm at the mercy of when my controller stuff comes....

It gets hot out here so that's why....

Strangly enough I have had a few nice frags that have doubled in size in 2 months......

80.0 - 81.7 for me. Fan kicks on at 81.3 and chiller on at 81.7 is fan isn't cutting it. Chiller off at 80.5 and fan off at 80.0.

82F currently with RFL dual 300 watt heaters. NO need for cooling.

 

 

I used to be a proponent of 79F. But reading and research and my own findings have made myself reevaluate my stance. I bumped it up to 80 and saw the corals expand more. Then 81 and same result now I have it set at 82F +- .1 and am very happy, so are my corals and fish.

 

Contemplating going to 83F and seeing the results. 83F is world reef average.

Steady 80 (two heaters, open top, t5 with fans), unless we're having a summer heatwave where it's gone up to 90. Apart from encouraging the BTA's to split, this does not seem to have any ill effects on my softies/LPS.
