 I just took a look in the tank, looks like I missed a frag, completely bone white. My favourite tenuis (sp?) acro frag . Sky blue with green hue... what a shame.

A chiller is so worth the money...you don't really have to worry anymore. I am so glad I got one for my little reef....discus beside the reef are over 88 while the reef sits happily at 80 a good investment!

Chiller on a 20g? Nah.. plus the tank is in my room. Double no .
If I keep my fan on and my bedroom window open fully, I can stay at 86. But instead of letting it get that high.. I will simply leave the halides off until I get home from work, and then check the temp.. and turn the lights on if it's not too warm.

Maybe pick up a small fan and aim it right at the tank. You could plug it in with the light timer too if that is the only time the tank really heats up. I'm doing this with my little QT tank, and the temp is holding fine at 80. It was up to 86 before.

Yeah Ed, I think I am going to go and pick up a small clip on fan or something similar. It will be efficient and will give me much more peace of mind. I think I am upgrading to a 250w HQI as well. It may be okay though (heat wise) as it will be hanging, as compared to my 24" Aqualight Pro. That thing gives off a ton of heat.. and it has no where to go. So hanging a pendant will be better in some ways.
