I like keeping the tank at 78; I've seen the recommended temp for them between 76 and 78. I guess it's partly dependent on where you live if you want to have a garage tank. If it gets really hot during the day you're going to need a cooler for the tank.

During the summer months my tank can get up to 85, Using evap cooling (Fans). i have had a clown pair for 8 years they are fine. Clowns are very strong. But in general 78-80 is optimal.

So far I have not had a problem... during the day my tank his a high of 81.2, and at night it drops to 79.6... some reason I have two fans running and I can not get to cooler then that. I am not not running a thermometer in the tank right now either. I have it turned off or down to 54 degrees as of right now...
This should be interesting when I have to kick the AC on if it get warm enough here... but for now I'm just watching it and everything seems to be thriving just fine.. I have zoa's, nem's, 4 fish, snails, and assortment of hammers and other corals. This tank has been running like this now for about 8 months.

Hi all,
I find myself see the temps range from 79-81.5 degrees and steady out at 81.5 degrees during the day. I am new to this hobby, so still getting familiar with there behavior in there home (16 gallon Biocube). I have seen them even start to communicate (and twitch) as they are both small so thus must be a good sign. Watching them both has been preety amazing seeing them do there thing.
They are both only been in the tank for since tis past Sunday (so 5 day only).
