Temp for SPS

[minsmarine]

My 3x1.5x1.5 tank with half SPS temp is

light off 26.5-27C

Light on 27.5-28C

maintaining with 2x4" Fan blowing in the main tank and 4L top up water everyday.

and if the weather is cool on the day , my tank temp would go down to 25C.

My light is 2x150w MH and photo periods is 5 hours.

Is my temp OK ? I read RC said that 80-82F is alright mean 27-28 is alright.

Any one running on this temp parameter and achiving result. Or should I get chiller ( space constain )

from ur water temp parameters, seems like u dun need a chiller at the moment. but u will be better off getting one. set ur mind to rest. dun hv to worry abt the crazy heat wave that comes abt every now and then. 2x 150W photoperiod of 5 hrs? dun think that is good enuff. try to simulate natural photoperiod. 8 to 10 hrs would be a good general guideline to follow.

Hey bro LS , seem like u got nothing to do but log in to SRC like I DO

Tks for ur words. Yea I had plan to go for 8hr, but those MH are just switched from 1x250w 20K, so slowly up. I believe need about 3-4 week right.
