I remember reading somewhere between 72 and 80 for the warm end? does that seem about right? I'm not used to using farenheight so don't quote me on it.
I will see if i can find a coverter online.

According to the online calculator i found anywhere between 80.6 and 87.8 in the hot end would be ok. So if you have a thermostat you could set it to come on at 81 and go off at 87 an you should be fine.

The warmest part of the viv should be roughly 82oF to 84oF (which is 27.8oC to 28.9oC in our language ). The cool end should be 72oF to 75oF (22.2oC to 23.9oC). Make sure you have a digital thermometer in each end so you can monitor the temperatures accurately.

Hope this is of some help.
