Changing temperature?

[jordanhunt]

So I realised today that the temp on my parrots tank was a little too low which explains why they're a little pale so I turned the temp up to 26.5 Celsius, is it safe to turn the temperature from 24 to 26.5 so quickly or do I have to do it slowly?

Should be fine since it will take a while for your heaters to pull it off.

2.5 degree change isn't much.

It will take time for all of the water to reach that temp, so it's gradual enough for the fish.

If you were to add warmer water directly to the tank, which is a quick temperature change, that could be detrimental to your fish.
