Default Re: Where do you keep your temp at?

One more thing I forgot to mention:

I personally think that more important than what specific temp you use is finding a way to keep it there consistently. Just about everything seems to be ok in the 77-81 range, it just seems to cause some problems if the swings in temp are too big. I would say once you get a temp where everything is happy 78-79-80 then try to keep it there. To paraphrase, large temperature fluctuations seem to cause more damage than a slightly higher or lower than "ideal" temp. My suggestion is if it ain't broke don't mess it up trying to fix it.
