Hi guys!
I've been having a bit of trouble setting the temperature of my 10 gallon tank. I have a 50 watt heater but when I use it the water is heated to 80-82 degrees. Is this too hot for the fish? I have 2 leopard danios, 2 cherry barbs and a dwarf gourami. The heater is set to the lowest temperature it can be. I've turned it off recently, but the room temperature in my flat fluctuates between 72-77 degrees. I know it's better to keep the temp in the tank constant, but was worried that the temp was too hot. Any advice?
Thanks
