asmedeas Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 ok you guys so i have a saltwater resovuar near my tank for saltwater changes since i was suggested to do them weekly i have a pump in there and a heater. My question is will it affect my livestock if the temperature in the bucket is 78F degrees and the aquarium is 79F the reason im asking this is beacuse the heater i have in the bucket will get it up to that temperature and the one in the tank can get it up even higher. soo im jw if a degree change in the water be enough to stress out the fish... srry bout the noobish question but that heater is all i can afford for right now lol.... soo as confusing as that was the question is will my fish be affected if the water i add to the tank is one degree lower than the one in the aquarium... thanks Link to comment
