As long as the temperature is 28 degrees celcius or below it does'nt really matter. Most aquarists advocate a lower temperature simply to slow down the breakdown of organic matter in our closed systems such that they can be removed by skimming or other forms of nutrient export before they get converted into nitrates. However if your skimming is efficient, you can keep most tropical corals in 28 degrees celcius. They might in fact grow faster. One thing to note about warmer water is that the dissolved oxygen content is lower, thus you might want to stock lightly.
