ok, my question is, if I have a tank without a heater ... why isn't the water stabilized at room temperature?
My room/house is set at 77 F ... which I imagine the room with the tank is in is actually hotter since it is my office with little ventilation and 2 computers running (which makes it feel hot to me). BUT, my 1 gallon tank is sitting at 70-72 F. The thermometer could be off I suppose, but when I touch the water, it feels cold to me.
So, am I'm losing my mind or this some strange scientific phenomenon that I'm not understanding. I know water changes temperature much slower than air, but I've had this up and running for about 3 weeks. Any ideas?
