Yes, the fans go on when the 10k bulb is on and off with the actinics. There are no mods to anything on the tank. It is same as it was in the box. I have a seio pump running on it for flow, other than that, nada for mechanical devices. It is not by a heater outlet or any other hot appliances. I have 3 other tanks (fresh water) in my room, and they do not have heating issues, and do require heaters to keep that at correct temp. (From as small as a 2.5 gallon to as large as a 100g). The nano is running at 80-86
when lights are on (I have started turning them off because I am worried it will climb to greater temperature). At night it goes down to 78 or 80.
Do the pumps in these things cause heat? Would anything else cause heat? Are there water issues that can cause heat????
PS: Bought this set-up at Gold's--Hey Albert any suggestions??? I wanted to put corals in there someday...
And by the way: why is my purple coralline algae dying?? I am keeping up with lots of water changes. It mostly is dying where the light hits it and that makes no sense to me. Can you give me a clue?
~~~ugh I feel like my dream is dying
please, need lots and lots of advice here.
