I have a 55 gallon tank and have been using the little stick on thermometer that came with the kit. I have two powerfilters and the 200 watt heater between them. The stick on had been reading about 80. I didnt trust its accuracy and it gave more of a range. There was color showing from 78-82. Last night I put in one of the glass marine land thermometers. It was reading about 78. I bumped the heater up. This morning it read 80 but the stick on red 86. The water felt way too warm. I am gradualy getting the temp down, but would love suggestions on a thermometer I can trust.
