FWIW, Ron Shimek's book "Marine Invertebrates" indicates that:
"Most coral reefs have temperatures that range between 78F and about 86F. The average temperature of about one thousand coral reefs spread throughout the world is about 81F. Virtually all coral reef animals will do best within this range, and I consider the temperature range of 81F to 84F as the optimal and normal temperature to maintain all reef animals."
page 15.
Since this is a fish tank and not a reef tank you'll find that the fish do alot better at lower temp 76-78 range than temps over 80.
