Candy basslet owners: what temp do you keep at?

[Michael43]

I kind of focused my whole reef tank around my carmabi. I keep the tank between 75.5-76(at least according to a thermometer and the apex) I haven't seen all that much growth in my sps since I started with them and I'm thinking about raising the temp to sat 77-77.5 but I'd hate to stress my favorite piece of the whole tank out. I know there's many reasons the sps may my be growing that fast but I'm thinking temp could be one thing..

78.3 on 78.5 off.

I've had one for a little over a year and I keep the temperature at ~78 although every once in a while it creeps up to 79.5.

What happened?

What happened?

The basslet does fine. I also have a cave basslet in the same tank and it doesn't mind the increased temperature.

Oh ok I thought you meant he only lasted a little over a year

Oh, no. The basslet is still doing fine.
