also...we figured since we plan on having this tank up for many years we might as well make the investment in a chiller so we don't have to worry about the investment we have already made...and it sucks when you have something that you care about and have "made it work" and it dies due to heat

76 degrees. Love living in basement or ground floor suites. The big test will come starting next month though.

LOL. 80's and 90's.... The highest my tank has hit this summer so far is about 29.5C with the lights on. Its been only 26-27C lately though. Not too bad at all. I have no idea what all this is in F and I'm not about to start learning. I'm happy with metric. Luckily, my thermometer is also only measured in metric so I won't ever get confused or have to learn the wrong units.

Tank is in the basement with lots of water surface and movement, temperature never varies from 78-79.

I generally have it at 79F
However today it hit 93F ... good thing my tank is still cycling. Time to break out the fans!!! I can't afford a chiller ... Any other thunks besides dechlorinated water ice cubes?
