tank temperature?

in the middle of the night my tank is staying at 74 degrees and during the day it is at 76 Is this too cold?

 

I would bump it up to about 78-79 during the day.. Thats what mine runs at.. It actually stays right around 78

 

i agree with bama. mine with lights on , sits around 80, lights out 78ish

 

What to do when you crank up the Halides and the temperature spikes??? Chillers are too expensive for me.

Grab a board ride the wave>>>>>>

 

can try fans blowing across the waters surface. one side affect , it wil lincrease evaporation.

 

ill check it out thanks

 

Also try moving the lights up HANGING THEM I GUESS

 

im thinking that the lights should stay close and i shouldnt use fans because im trying to warm the water temperature.

 

do you have a heater? use that to regulate. if thats not working, you may have too small of a heater.

 

right that makes sense ill check it out thanks.
