I just recently aquired an Aqua Controller Jr. and love the data log feature.

I was curious what range does everyones tank stay in PH and TEMP within a 24hr period.

My Temp-76.4-77.7
My PH 8.32-8.40

What is an acceptable Temperature and PH swing within a 24hr period.

In the winter my temp is 78-79 and in the summer it goes from 79-82
My ph is from 7.9 at night to 8.1 during the day. Acceptable is really on a tank by tank basis. My Ph is low to begin with so my range is acceptable for me but might not be for someone else. I know some people that run there temp 80-84 all year round and have success.
