I bought a portable air conditioner. Acts to keep a few rooms nice and cool and the tank temp in check. I was going to buy a chiller but this way we stay cool as well

Glad you got your problem dealt with... I had heat issues until I spent 10 bucks on on a fan. A 6" fan blowing directly on the MH fixture and my temp is 80 F at all times. Never varies, with the tank almost completely covered in glass.

The Bargain Shop. They also had 10" box fans for 15 bucks.

Central AC for me. Keeps everyone in the house from over heating, including the aquatic inhabitants :-)

Oh for sure, my living room never rises above 22C. Love my 10 000 BTU an hour AC.

I found couple small fans at Walmart for $10 btw. Central AC would be nice but can't afford it
