The temperature is often very stable. OTOH some river temperatures change by huge amounts. -- Steve Wolstenholme Neural Planner Software EasyNN-plus.

The temp in my house today was way above outside - outside was 32C inside was averaging at 38C - at the moment all my tanks are inside - I can't cope with those temps....and I don't think my fish can either.... So really, it is about fixing a comfort level for us as well as our fish.... Similar Threads Posted NeedTechs.com Stoops to a NEW all time low!
