My Display tank temp, ever since adding powerheads to chamber where heater 1 is in the sump, have been what I consider absurdly stable.

The frequency of the heater kicking on changes thoughout the day, and the other heaters never drop to 78.00 where they would kick on.

Only the single 300 watt kicks on in the sump, varying the temp between 78.00 to 78.54.

The temp in display is almost always, exactly, 78.08 degrees, not changing by a single 100th for days at a time.

I've checked and rechecked with other probes, and it seems accurate.

Is there any issue with this? I figured there should be at least a high low cycle. Is this constant temp going to confuse the animals?

Photo of last 5 days attached. Temp 2 is display between return and overflow, about 10 inches below the level of the overflow drain in the display.

Its been like this for weeks, and the only spot where I can detect chanfes is right in fron of the return inlet, but 2 inches from it its back to the same 78.08
