I am writing this in a hurry as I am off to work...but here is my problem!
I have 12 baby rams in qt in a 10gal tank...the heat for a week has been 86, 85...and there is a light on there too~
But yesterday I noticed that the temp was 92!! I freaked....I thought i cooked them...something is goin on with the light , i think it gets too hot and raises the temp? So........ i turned down the heater...and left the light on....later the temp was 71!! Then i kicked back up the heater a tad and left the light on...and it skyrocketed again....
I then left the light off and left the heater at 86 and , then it was only 70! I am going back and forth with the heater and light......all of a sudden... i have the heat on like 80 now and the light is on and i juss noticed that the heat is 91 again!!!
I am seeing Ich in my future real quick here ~
or cooked rams!! HElp... It is a new stealth heater and and no matter what i do i can not seem to regulate between heat and light..without the light it is too cold and with it too hot...omg!
and all this on a dime...for over a week it was alll okay!!
thanks guys!!
