My 55 + 15 gal sump got to 79.7 yesterday. Today it's gonna be 7 deg hotter.

The 79.7 was with my apex controller running fans (3) and eventually shut down my day lights as well I don't want it spiking over 80.

My range is 77-79.5

Dropping ice cubes in is a waste. They melt fast. Use a sour cream container and freeze treated water. Add a small iceberg that will take some time to melt away.

The water bottle idea is prObably even better.

That's a really good idea, I'm gonna try it.
