The 1 month old Lifegard Time & Temp I put on my FOWLR says it's at 45.1F. I know my chiller isn't THAT powerful. POS Time & Temp.

Default summer heat

I use a window A/C unit to keep cool. It has a built in thermostat. Set the temp, and walk away. My tanks only raise max. 1deg. on the hottest days. At around $200, it's an inexpensive way to keep one and all happy.

My bad. My Pink Tail Trigger had chewed through the sensor cord . Anyway, just for the record. Can't claim that Time & Temps are pieces of poop after all.
