This puzzle uses the same ruleset as Aquatic Marmalade and Pocket Aquatic Marmalade.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Normal Thermo rules apply (digits on a gray thermometer must strictly increase from the bulb to the top).
Normal German Whisper rules apply (adjacent digits along a green line differ by 5 or more).
Cells separated by an orange dot differ by the same value. The solver must determine the value. Not all dots are necessarily given.
Comments are always welcome. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the puzzle. Have fun!
Streamers have permission to use this puzzle. Reccomended betting cell for streaming is r9c9.
Solution code: Row 5

Thanks heliopolix! I have to say it, the SudokuPad saved my life while determining the orange dot difference eheh 90 min of fun! I’m pretty new to the site and I don’t know if I can write how long it took for me to solve the puzzle here in the comment section, I just think it’s a valuable information ^^

Loved it. This is one of the complex ones I usually skip because I'm not very good at them yet, but after 80 minutes, I finally did it. It was a big challenge for me! Thank you so much for the lovely puzzle.
