79 degrees day in and day out with the help of a dual ranco temp controller

I target 82 F as the base temperature. This article goes into all the water parameters, and has some references:

I have some hot halides and no chiller. 3 fans but still mine is 82-84. One time it jumped to 86 when ac went out for the day. Everything looked just as great as any other day.

79 to 80 degrees 24/7 thanks to a temp controller. It used to run much warmer in the summer months before I added more fans in my canopy.

[Kayak_Guy]

79 thanks to the hot Florida sun.

[AquaJern]

Mine is usually between 78-82
