Water Temp for RBTA

[DottyClown]

Would like to find out if any reefers have been successful in keeping RBTA in 27-29 Deg C water temperature?

Please do share your experiences. Thanks.

I kept mine at 27 degree c. BTW i am hving 3 in my tank

Tks bro, as I'm not running a chiller, only fan, so temp could go up to 29 on hot days. Wonder if RBTA could take it.

I also run with fan temp between 27.3 to 28.5. so far no issue.

use to have it at 28-29 no problem,

now having it in sps tank. 26.5 to 27.5..

BTAs can take fairy moderate temperature as they are usually in low lying reef and at times during low tide, totally exposed to sunlight.

Tks all.

So far it's all positive feedback. Maybe I will try RBTA for my next coral.

RBTA is not a coral

It would be better at 28 degrees. Right now, I have a fan that keeps my temp at 28.2 degrees and below, I am going to keep BTA eventually in that tank, if I put Green star polyps inside and they survive. As far as im concerned if you have a fan that keeps ur tank at 28 degrees and below it should be fine. 29-30 degrees i think may be risky. I have had a hammer coral survive for a few months under 28.8-29.3 degrees last time. But for long-lasting lives of corals best if 28degrees and under.
