What is the highest temp your tank ever got ?

Highest temp ??

 

[SDguy]

93oF. On more than one occasion. Never lost a single thing to it.

 

[Bojan]

30 C (short time)

 

[unmc2001]

95 F. I lost my candycane coral, open brain, cleaner shrimp and bocolor blenny. my other corls looked bad for a while but have rebounded. I had a heater malfunction.

 

[ACBlinky]

89F for a day -- the heater stuck in the 'on' position and took the temperature up five degrees in a short span of time. Two corals bleached, everything else was just fine. The bleached corals are coming back nicely, no permanent damage.
Right now it's HOT here and there's not much I can do other than crank up the ceiling fans and a/c; because we live in an apartment and get heat from all the floors below us, even that only takes our apt temperature down to 82F or so. All the tanks are at 86-7F, but everything's fine so far.

 

[Amphiprion]

105 F--only lost a few Euphyllia sp.

Unfortunately, that wasn't due to outside temps, but from a heater malfunction.

so far 84.4 degrees is the highest i've seen. Only had the tank for four months or so.

 

[Sk8r]

89 degrees for 3 hours under 250 w mh lighting in a 52. Coralline bleaching over 1/3 of the height of the rocks.

Some experts are now suggesting that lighting plays a part in bleaching. I'd be curious if those who didn't have bleaching were under less light.

 

[SDguy]

No bleaching. 250W MH over a 30g hex. So for me, heat plus light didn't equal bleaching.

 

[Snarkys]

haha i don'f feel so bad now : )

 

[DaveG99]

Probably 81ish

 

[E-A-G-L-E-S]

82.5....then all the halides got shut off by ac jr.(ambient room temp. was 87)

 

[silversnake]

85 i had one feather duster croak but may have been unrelated.

 

[SVXH6]

105, lost a breeding Clarkii pair..

 

[wrenchhead]

86 if my wife forgets and turns the ac up before she leaves the house(no chiller.I rely ont ac to cool the tank)

 

[Btboy2004]

86 F, no power for 8 hrs. No losses.

 

[mg426]

84 no problems so far
