Question for those with PCs, wondering how hot does the tank get? Reason I'm asking is currently have 75g sumpless FOWLR with 2-40W fluorescents, but want to start keeping zoos so need to upgrade lights.

This was my first summer with the tank and was having temp concerns with just the NOs as tank was maxing about 83°. Found had to keep the glass covers open and evaporating close to a gallon a day to keep the temp in check.

Don't want to run with a open canopy (lighting spillage) nor want to get a chiller.
