bigmike015 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 My tank stays between 70 and 74 degrees. Just wondering if this is ok? i dont have any fans on the tank or any thing. And the hood is 10-12 inches off the water with good airflow just wondering if this temp is ok for everything?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooks Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I keep my reef at 82-83... 70-74 is very cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClarkiiCircus Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I was going to ask, are you worried about it being cold or hot? Mine is near 80-82 and everything is happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I stick with 77 - 78. I've had much worse bleaching problems when I previously had it around 80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 82-83 is what I usually keep mine at but I think most aim for 78-80. -Ty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SChrisEV Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Seems cold. I know BIO keeps his down there. My goal is 78, but I fight with heat, and it is usually around 80-81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KimP Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It depends what fish you have. There are some pretty cool fish and coral you can keep in a tank that cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
