Smile Tank temperature

Not to be repetitive, but I would like to see a poll just stating tank temperatures. I know that the poll on specific gravity addressed this, but it was not exactly in the poll question. It was informative to see how many people ran their tanks at 1.025 or higher, as I have always ran around 1.023-1.024. I am going to slowly raise my specific gravity up to around 1.025 and see if there is an increase in the healthy appearence of my corals, and see if my fish have any trouble adjusting. All of my fish I have had for at least 2-3 yrs in a 7 yr old setup, so they are quite hardy specimens.

Thanks folks,

Greg

Fish can easily adjust to salinity higher or lower the problem is inverts. When I used a hydrometer my SG was at 1.029 for I don't know how long

BTW I keep my temp at 82 degrees year round

All things considered, I recommend temperatures in the range of 76-83° F unless there is a very clear reason to keep it outside that range.
