I Mine seems to go from 79.4 to 78.6 each day. Is that ok?
What temp do you keep your tank?

That's fine and wont hurt the coral. 79.4 is a little high IMO only because it leaves less room for error if a/c goes out or something like that. I usually run about 77-78. My heaters cut off at 77.5 but can swing up to 78.5 with the pump heat pretty easily during the day if I leave the a/c a few degrees higher while I'm at work.
75-76 during winter
77-78 during summer

76-ish and everything is blown up and puffy
78 year round
Same for me. 77.5 the heaters kick on, 78 they shut off. At 79 fans kick on and at 78 they turn off.
I set my Inkbird between 77.8-78.3
78

Yes.
Seriously though, I think everything is set to 78° and I have fans that kick on when it gets to 80° I just checked and my frag tank is between 77° and 78°. It gradually fluctuates through out the day between the two.

Mine is set to 78.5. With my heater controller it only ever goes .5 of a degree in either direction.
I keep mine at 80 year-round, seems to help some of the shallow water acros out a bit. that may not be the case, but they did well for me. LPS? Not so much. Some LPS will tolerate warmer water, but as a rule they like cool water. 75-78 for LPS to be fully happy in my tanks.
Ok. Had to recalibrate my temp prob. Was about 3 degrees high. Was reading 79 at 76. I used three points of reference and averaged them out. Then programmed it prob to that reading. Don’t have a calabrated temp gauge.
I have mine at 78 but it fluctuates between 77.5-78.4 according to my Apex.
