Hi Kiesha,
It all depends on this type of fish in some cases but the average temp is 76- 79 Degree's THose temps are good for the basic fish Like mollies, guppies, Guormis, Sharks, tetras ect ect. When you get into Angels and ciclids familay you want to go a little higher like 79 - 80 even 81... Discuss run 84 to 86 i run my angel and discus tank at 85 - 86 for the reason that gives them the closest temp to there natural enviroment.... they let me know by changing there color if it goes lower than 84 when i do the water changes. But all in all those are the basics. There are some great guides out there on the net that can give you specific temps for certain breeds.
Good Luck
