[illal]

what temp does everyone keep there reef tanks at??

Between 80-81 on a chiller, no heater.

luckily my parents enjoy the house at near freezing temps otherwise I would most definitely need a chiller, but between 79.5 and 81.5, most days it just hangs at 80.7. The most extreme days it will go to 78 or 82.7. Hope the decimal places aren't an overkill.

before my 400's I was at 75 now 78 w/no chiller

78 with chiller, but my house temp is around 79.

nothing over 81 or the lights go out. most of the time its at 79-80. no heater either.

 

[ReefWreak]

80-82 with a chiller running during the day in a house where temps can be 77-80 (My parents want to save on their electric bill).

I think my temp is so high because I've got a mostly closed hood (only back is open about 4"x3') and there are no fans in it, just indirect circulation and heat induced circulation.

81.3 - 81.7 for me

81 with chiller on my 250g with chiller. 78 to 79 on all my smaller tanks without chillers.

I let it swing from 79 to 81. I have a 55g with only a fan blowing on the water. A heater keeps the water from dropping under 79. So far so good as the summer heat is here.

79-81 with fans blowing on the water during lights-on only.

1/2 hp chiller keeps the tank between 81.2 - 81.5, no heater in the tank.
