Ok as others mentioned they are cold water fish. I've heard 72 is a preferred temp to keep them healthy.
I find 73-4 is the temp to keep them at if you want coral but 72 is if you don’t mind losing the coral.
 
Due to having coral and an anemone in my tank, maybe I will try and re-home him to someone who has a cooler tank.
That's probably the true reefer thing to do so he lives better in captivity. Maybe your LFS will give you store credit?

I've heard that for Blue Spotted, but not Pearly. They live in Bonaire in the shallows and it def gets in the upper 70s, low 80s there.
