The Puffer Forum

I don't usually kept my current DP tank above 79F but the tank I have aset up and cycled tank at work that is at 82F all the time - turned the heater off- actually unplugged- but still 82F- work in an IT center with lots of equipment- is pretty warm all the time. Would it be too warm for a DP constantly? I know it says up to 82F in the pufferpedia but I avoid the extremes.

82 should be fine. I have had the temperature at 86 while treating ich with no strange effect at all on DPs, seemed just as comfortable as at 76.
