It's kind of hard to put a definitive number on that. I'm assuming your using a pump to mix up the water in these containers? These will generate a little heat. What's the ambient temperature like down there in Sydney? You might not even need to heat the water at all. If 77 is your desired temperature and the water rings up at 73, 74, 75 you should be fine, being that your probably only changing out somewhere between 10-20% each water change. If you were doing a large water change, say 50% or more, then matching the temperature would be more of a concern. JMO, GL.
