High temp Marine fishes?

tdtiger · 04/17/2006, 12:25 PM

Hi everyone, I'm tearing down my tank after 2 years and moving. I would like to setup the tank again but the new place has horrible insulation will be heating up like an oven. I was wondering if there were any kinds of Marine fish or inverts that would be able to survive high temperature waters. Living in Southern California we are talking about 90+ degrees.

Thanks for any input.

Hmm, 90 is a little excessive. Fish are pretty tolerable to about 86 degrees. Corals like it cooler.

wher ein the world is there a 90 degree reef? Get stufff rom there and slowly acclimate it

Probably only the little mud puddle fish found in tidepools.
Investigate refridgeration!
