Use the Apex season table to save power during winter. So tank is 73°F in Winter and then gradually ramps up to 77-78 in summer.

I would say that stability within the accepted range is better than targeting a temperature that isn't possible to keep steady.81 for last 16 months. Coral is very happy and beautiful. No issues. Seems I'm running hotter than most
My chiller turns on at 81 and shuts off at 78I know this is a common question, but I would like to get a poll of member's average tank temperature. I realize it can swing based on time of day/year, light schedule, etc, but just looking for an overall average.
77 - 78 closer to 78I know this is a common question, but I would like to get a poll of member's average tank temperature. I realize it can swing based on time of day/year, light schedule, etc, but just looking for an overall average.
Does an elevated temperature promote faster coral growth in a typical (tropical) reef tank?
I've always kept mine around 75, but wonder if maybe I should bump it up a couple notches?
I'm not willing to perform that experiment on my own personal reef... just saying.
