Temp opinions

[KingAlee]

Just looking on y’all’s opinions on good temps for reef tanks? I’m seeing a bunch of different ones and I feel like I can’t get mine above 76°-77° this being the case how would I go about raising it? The heater is in the sump but I feel it does hardly anything.

78-80
A second heater should do the trick.

76-77 is better than 80-82 IMHO. Get a larger heater maybe

+1 on getting another heater. I run 2, that alone cant get too hot. Had one fail and the tank only got 1 degree warmer because that was all it could do, even on full time.
