water temperature

Hi,

I recently installed a DIY MH 500W Light with a fan which blows air across the water surface as recommended within the podcast, however my tank temperature will rise from 26 - 28.5 degrees.

I'm slightly concerned as most articles I have read advise to maintained a specific water temperature.

Is there an acceptable allowance in degree shift when dealing with water temperature .

Thanks
