I just leave my air con on so the house stays at around 26 whilst i'm at work

and even tho you came from england years ago and are 46 ithink you should use metric as we have since 1972 so its not exactly new and as they say "when in rome "if this was an American or English forum sure use farenhight but its not youre not too old to learn metric even at your age tongue.gif

Sparky, thanks for your advice, but, before leaving your comment you should have read all MY posts regarding this subject. I DO understand Fahrenheit and metric, have done since getting into the hobby, I engage in quite a few forums around the world and just simply typed in Fahrenheit within my question instead of metric, was an easy slip of thought, I didn't realize it was going to be such a talking point and problem for some of you. I don't have trouble converting Fahrenheit and metric in anyone's questions or discussions but it seems to be a problem for the few people that's taken the time to leave me a comment about it.

Below is a part of my post from Jan 21 2011, 01:00 PM, you must have missed it!
"I will offer you a little bit of advice, it really helps in this hobby to know Celsius and Degrees (all experienced aquarist should). If your going to use the internet and get involved in other forums around the world I would suggest you learn them both."

I'm sorry and hope this is the end of the discussion on my mistake of using Fahrenheit instead of metric, I thought we were all on here because we share the same passion for the hobby and are willing to share our experiences and knowledge with each other.

Thanks.
