Congratulations on Reef of The Month! Your tank is beautiful. I read that you don’t use a heater, and I have a few questions if you don’t mind.
What temperature do you keep your tank at, and how much does it fluctuate throughout the day, and throughout the year?

I made this tank as simple as possible, as I wrote in the article. So, I didn't test parameters including temperature. So frankly I don't know, what are the parameters and temperature in this tank. What I only do is change the water and dosing Micro E Aquaforest once a week.

besides, the corals that I keep are only softies, they are more tolerant of changes in temperature & parameters. It will be different if you put acropora (sps) coral in it. It needs better maintenance than this. :)
 
Okay understood. Roughly what temperature is the room it is in and how much does the temp in there fluctuate? Sorry to ask but I’m curious to see if its really low. Ive wanted to keep a pico without a heater but mine would be 68f and that seems too low to me.

if i look at the temperature in my other tanks, maybe the temperature in this tank is in the range of 27-29°c ..
 
It's been a long time since there was an update, but this tank still exists .. In the last few months, this tank has experienced Brown Algae problems, the cause is because I replaced the liverock on the right side with a new Liverock, it seems that this tank needs time to adapt to the new liverock, thus causing brown algae everywhere... After a long time, finally this tank is stable again... here are some photos...
