I have a 32 biocube. I set it up about a week and half ago, got all the items I needed from my local fish store. The biocube is stock. I have 19 pounds of live rock and 20 pounds of live sand, with a bag of carbon and bioballs in the filter, in the first chamber there is a “accu-therm heater made in 2014” and a biocube protein skimmer. I had my heater set to 78 and the tank read 82 so I call the fish store and they says just turn the heater down until you reach 78. So I gradually turn it down everyday, and now my heater is on 65 and the water is reading 78.6. I felt the leds and it’s not hot to the touch. And the tank is in my bedroom with an ambient temp of 70-75(mostly 73) but the water shouldn’t be has hot as it is? And I’m don’t know what to do anymore? Any ideals?
