i usually like to keep my tanks at 78-80f but during the summer months the air temp will make my tanks raise up to 84-86F during the day, then back down during the night. this year i have my temp set at 83-84f during the summer to avoid the daily extremes. does anybody else do this as well? i do plan on turning thr temp back to 78-80f during the fall and winter.

A small fan blowing across the top will help with temp. gain if it's that critical.
You just have to top off more often due to evap.
