Water Temperature

[Blag It]

Hello,
I'm a bit confused as to what temperature my saltwater aquarium should be.
Iv'e read that a temperature of 24c (75f) is optimum for reading correct specific gravity of 1.022-1.026.
I have however read more often that marine water temps should be around 78-80f.
Which is correct??
Bearing in mind i am planning on having a pair of clownfish, a cleaner shrimp, a hermit crab and a turbo snail, what is there preferred water temp??
Thanks!

I keep all my tanks at 79 degrees. Even my freshwater. It seems to be pretty easy in my house to maintain that temp.

Thanks, I'm going to set mine to roughly 25c (77f) and go with that
Cheers!

IME 78-82 is optimal. The key is stability though. Get it to a temp. and try to keep it there.
