Small Tanks PH & Lighting

Recommended Posts

I out of curiosity hooked up my Pinpoint PH Monitor to my office 10g.

The temperature is around 80 degrees

Salinity about 1.025.

When I come into the office in the morning for the last couple of days it's sitting around 7.97 or so, but during the day it rises into the 8.2 ranges, getting as high as 8.29 yesterday before I left around 6pm to current 8.22 reading now.

I understand with the dual PC Bulbs 96W, this will bring it up, but this got me worried a bit.

Kind of hot in the office today and making temp in tank about 82 degrees now also.

Any suggestions to more stabilize the system or is this a product of just too little water to work with?

Try a fan to keep the water temp. more stable and constant?

The Coralife 96w unit that I got from Heliolights already has fans in it
