:'(
So, one hot day, my tank hits over 86 degrees while I'm at work. I came home to a cloudy, murky tank and 100+ heads of frogspawn with no polyps on them. My old tank would get warm with the hot weather, but nothing like this -- a guess a combination of more water and hotter lights took the temp over the top. In the past the combination of the room air conditioner and a fan on the sump has kept the temp down - still a tad warm, but cool enough for the happiness of my tank. I don't think that's going to work this year and the hubby doesn't want to run the air continuously this summer. We both like the windows open.
So, we're in the market for a chiller. What do I look for? How large? What brands?Where? HELP!
