Mine's just under the top of the green bit. I must check, but the heater, as I remember, was set to 27°C

I've an underwater led but this does not seem to have changed the temp. I was thinking of lowering the heater's setting a tad as the instructions say the temp should be in the green band ~ I am, but at the top of it.
