Unless you have problems with overheating year round, I highly reccommend a window air conditioner instead of a chiller. Not only have my tanks not gone over 82 but my livingroom is a great place to be right now and it cost less then $500 last year at canadian tire.

Hey Christy...I just read that thread the other day and thought of you, I guess no matter how bad you think you have it, someone has it worse!

Yup, one of THE most awesome tanks I have ever seen - gone.

It wasn't an inspiration for me or anything, but I'd be a damned fool if I couldn't see all the time and dedication for the hobby put into that tank. It was simply stunning enough in photos.
