Just curious, what temperature does everyone keep their reef aquarium at? I just set mine from 80 to 75 degrees. It is upstairs and with a hot summer and no air conditioning, I am thinking this might be best to avoid the temperature going too high this summer. what is the lowest in my clowns and mandarin and tang can handle? Thanks.
 
I run mine at 80-82 because I have a chiller so I dont worry about heat. If I didn't have a chiller it would be 78.
 
Mine also runs 80-82, with a small chiller and fans.

fish - I would watch for large temperature swings. At least until you know what to expect on certain days. I pretty much know what the temp of my tank is going to do based on the temperature outside and how much my air conditioner is going to run. Do you have MH lighting?
