Central AC for me. Keeps everyone in the house from over heating, including the aquatic inhabitants :-)

Oh for sure, my living room never rises above 22C. Love my 10 000 BTU an hour AC.

I found couple small fans at Walmart for $10 btw. Central AC would be nice but can't afford it

I bought a portable AC (the type that has vent tubes) last year in August for 600.00 on sale at Canadian Tire. It works great... best 600 bucks I ever spent (not really, but it keeps me comfortable).

I found have tanks in the basement you can have better control. My tanks are around 78 to 82 depending on the day.

I was running at 84 yesterday and 81 today. running my lights at night and I run chillers on both my tanks plus fans. My main tank is upstairs though.
Soon I will have to add that 250w heater though to the 500w I already have.

I don't have a chiller. already turned on the fan and add ice block to slowly get the temp down. I guess I have to run the lights at night for the moment.
