When is the last time you cleaned your return pump? Is your heater light on? What temp do you have it on? What is at now?

It could be external factors such as temperature do you have a computer in the room? Is the heater set to always be on or off or to maintain a temperature?

Question time!
1) What is the normal temperature of the tank you want to see?
2) What temperature are you seeing?
3) How are you seeing the temperature? (Glass thermometer, digital, other)
4) How long have you been experiencing above average temperatures?
