![]() Ya I hear ya... I think all in one cubes running lights which produce a bit of heat will run into heat issues. I found out that there is a huge diff if you remove the heat from in between water and splash guard. I run a chiller and still get about 1 to 1.5g of water evaporating on a 34g AIO cube running 14k mhi, so i always have that clean ro/di water in the stand. Next purchase for me is a ato unit.
It's either go led, run a chiller or tons of fans which will get ya evaporation, however I think every tank should have a auto top off system. |

![]() I will probably get flamed but HQI while if done correctly it will grow nice coral it is terribly inefficient. The wattage needed to light those things and then the wattage needed to chill the water you just heated up is not very good for the environment and your wallet.
Best to buy or build an ATO and then use a fan blowing across the surface to keep things cool until you can buy or build an LED system. My opinion. |
