If you are going "fishless" which I hope you are, 80 degrees. Bacteria thrives around this temp and your cycle will be quicker

Just read your last post so you do have fish. Higher temps can make amonia more toxic so I would go with the min. needed for the fish. Probably about 78 and you should be doing PWC very frequently.

Exactly where I am at and what I am doing. Just wanted to make sure.

Thanks
