Default Tank temp

Just curious what other people run. Maybe describe what types of corals you keep and your temp swing.

Just a bored post

I put 79 but I have to add that this is the temp which I strive to maitain or the average. my tank goes down to 78.2 at night and up to 80.5 during the day. In the old house my temp was getting up to 87 during the day in the summer but I feel this house will be cooler so I shouldent see that much of a swing. If there is I will be buying a cooler this summer.

LPS and SPS. Shoot for 78, but varies from 75-78.

79.5 - 80 steady, year-round.
