Temperature variation

[Bonsai reef]

Hi Guys,

I am controlling my reef tank heater through an Ink Bird controller which has a temp differential of 1 degree. So once it reaches the set temp the heat is off unless it falls back 1 degree below and then again kicks in. Question- will this 1 degree up and down every few hours all impact the corrals/live stock? I have mixed reef (24G Tank)

It shouldn't, corals should be able to handle several degrees of fluctuation daily

My mixed reef tank varies about 2 degrees each day. No problem.
