Back 10 years ago people would freak out at 78 degrees for any reef tank. Today I see many are ok with temps as high as 85.
My tank has been hovering around 82 degrees during the day and about 77 at night. I just ordered a set of fans and would like everyone's opinion on when they should kick on. I am trying to minimize noise so was originally thinking of kicking them on late like at 82 degreed however if my home AC fails or something goes wrong that leaves me no safety net so have also considered kicking them on early at 78 degrees and hopefully keeping the tank under 80 all day. Again I am not a fan(ha) of noise and the tank is almost silent as it is. Curious on everyone's opinions. I will mostly be doing zoanthids ricordia and SPS
