I ordered some more slimline fans, but my temp still swings from 77 to
84 in a day. Is 7 degrees too much?
I was hoping to wait till next month to buy a chiller, but it seems like
I need to do something sooner.

Two choices-
easiest - simply set the thermostat on your heater to 84. That's high,.
but not dangerously so (I run my tank this hot myself)
OR
Less easy - get a chiller with a dual stage controller.

7 degree temperature swing can be stressful on your fine finned buddies.
Try and tighten up the temp swing +/- 3°F
Say 77°F - 80°F
Temp should be kept between 76°F and 83°F

Given my climate, I think I'll go for the higher end and try to keep
80-83 as my range.

I have seen this issue debated on web foruoms for a few years. LOtsof
info one way or the other in regards to max temps and temp swings /
differentials. Iknow for a fact the water in th ekeys or bahamas cools
down consideranbly at night once that sun goes down and a tide
occurs........so fish do go through temp swings on a rather routine
schedule with sun up sun down and tide changes and storms.......it
happens. Same for max and min temps. I prefer higher temps and less
swing......I know person in the phillipines that runs his tanks at a
cool 86 deg, and he says that temp is pretty well common place for all
the reef and fish keepers there. 86 is not all that uncomon for aot
of reefs either around the world and there are even a few that are a
bit higher. As an experiment one time I ran a tank with just corals
in it at 86 deg and they did do fine, actually best they ever did with
a SG of 1.026 and 86 deg F, but I thnk its a bit extreme if fish are
at that temp. Yes they may live and do fine, but a bit more increase
could be a fish and shrimp boil too.

My LFS actually advised me to set the thermostat on the heater to around
20C - this was to compensate for inaccuracies within the thermostat
itself...to prevent the tank from going too low if the ambient
temperature did...and to prevent overheating if the ambient temp was too
high....in a heated house that rarely falls below 70F and bearing in
mind the temp added by the lighting this kind of made sense to me - just
using the heater as a fail safe....of course I do not live in an area
where temps go that low for it to be an issue overnight...and personally
would not be comfortable myself if the temps in the house dropped to a
level that would really cause the tank temps to drop that
significantly.....some fluctuation is natural though...I was always
taught that it was sudden variations that caused a problem rather than
gradual changes....might be wrong though....

I would adjust the heater so that it keeps the tank up to a higher
temp...like say 80 or 82 deg.......then the swing will be less
overall......84deg is a bit high, but IMHO is not really that far out
of line when you look at the online temps of various reefs of the
world. It is however a drastic reduction in fudge control if you run
into a situatin so you have lots less wiggle room if it was able to be
run at a max of 82 F. If you already have fans ordered I would just
bump up the heater a few degrees to reduce some of the swing, ,
install the fans and work at obtainig a decent happy medium of temp
with a bit of playing with fans and heater settings. Are you going to
use a variable power supply for the fans........A variable supply is
best as you can further control speed and noise levels of fan and have
more precise control available.
Most fans will run on 4.6 to 14 volts of DC power..

Look around you Roy Tristan Hauer in these groups on USENET..
Just how many folks actrually hold a on topic conversation with you once
they read your slanderous depraved sex posts?
HOw many can you converse with , without getting into a pissing
contest in short order. Just Gill. Anyone with 2 brain cells killfiled you
long ago.
HOw many questions can you answer without stealing the answers and
materials from others?
How many here would be willing to trust "YOU" at your word?
How many here gives a rats ass about what you post or say anymore? Eveyone
got you killfiled.
Ho9w many here have been in contact with you "behind" the scenes by
way of Email and phone in the last month or two, to disscuss .....what
else "YOU" to try and placate you and convice you to stop trolling.
I bet you can not even answer a yes or give a number other than "0" to
anyone of them questions can you Roy Tristan?
If it was not for Suicide Prone Ed Alston you would not have anyone to
converse and conive with would you worthless semi literate 4F er.
If it was not for your sock puppets you would be a lonely old redneck swamp
drunk.
If it was not for rec.ponds you would not have any entertainment would
you Roy Tristan. You need carol to build your whale shit low ego.
If it was not for porn, you may even have a wife that notices you!
If it was not fro Ed, Myself and others yu would have created an
even bigger mess in the usenet groups with your depravity and hate.
If it wa snot for newbies you woul dnot have a chance to give info,
but we all see how long your chance at putting ouot erroneous info
lasts......about 1 post till your slapped down for spewing erroneous
crap and bullshit about peole, always cripples and old ladies! 2 Posts
until your totally ignored on the
post/topic totally.
Face it, your a hypocrite, a habitual liar, a drunk and a barely literate
loser.....any way you look at it. NOt
justb any loser, but a big dumb loser without anyone in life that
gives a rats ass that really means something so you come on usenet to get
your rocks off.YOu can tell by the
folks you patronize that hang with you.....al have low self esteem like
Antonio, no morale
fibre, poor famioly life with parents who yu did not know or who did
not care as they to were illiterate swamp trash......and a well known
abusive upbringing with no regards for
anyones beliefs..........your a real classic Roy Tristan.....

Sure it can be done, just with the software you Tristan and jabriol use.,
You can create a group, remove a group and also forge their headers

Funny thing that you mentioned the usenet ab(user) tool Hipcrime. I
have a copy of hipcrime for some time now and never installed it as I
liked the way Agent worked. I just may have togo and install that dll
library and hipcrime and see exactly what it can do. I remember
something about yur able to make groups as well as delete groups, but
I may be wrong on that aspect, but I do rememeber its good for
manipulating posts......but back then I had no need, now I have a
mission so perhaps now there is a need......
Thanks for jogging my memory with the name hipcrime. I knew I seen it
somewhere around my software here, and totlaly forgot it.
