[Teelie]

Anywhere from 66F(18.8C) to 82F(27.7C) depending on the tank and the season.

I've kept mine at 80-85.


but after doing a ich treatment, i raised it to 90 and now i have a hard time getting it lower. its at 87 now adn i have the temp set at 75. it went down from 90 to 87 in a week.

This is the perfect recipe for some sort of bacterial infection. Sudden Temperature changes are very stressful for the fish. Just let the tank temperature slowly come down, you are 2 degrees from your normal tank tamperature anyways.

My tank temperature depends on what kind of fish I have in it. Rainbows, 75-77*, Blue Eye rainbows 78*, Goldfish 70*, "mixed bag" tank 78*
