 I bought some coarser sand today ( aragmax select, I think?) and I'll add a thin layer and see what happens. Since the stream in ther now blows the hermits across the bottom, I'm not sure the sand will stay put!!

Haha I don't think bare bottom looks good either but I am tempted to try one day.
I went with the Seafloor sand but it's still blowing around a bit on the ends.. and you'll have twice my flow in half the tank. Good luck!!  Chillers are noisy and hot. Not sure what I'll do for the summer this time round right now either.

I originally was going to lay a layer of silicone down over the entire bottom and fill it with sand. Let it dry and shake off the excess, but I ran out of time. I'm not sure what teh sand will do, but gotta give it a shot.
And ya, I forgot about heat. My chiller heated my whole house this past winter!!

I wonder if there is a plastic radiator available out there. That combined with a couple of fans may make a reasonable inexpensive chiller/cooler/heat exchange.

no Steve, that's the nasty habit I have of hitting the space bar prematurely.
Hey, I need you to come look at something. Little brown growths tht I want to make sure aren't those things that overgrew your tank.
