Got home an hour ago, and checked today's max temp. 83. Not bad with no A/C running yet, but I think I need to get the fans installed in my canopy soon.
I had my AC on this weekend. It is one of those units that are built right into the wall. The great thing is it is right above my tank. My tank temp stayed right around 80.5 while it was on.Moe_K said:I was reluctant to put the AC in the windows, given it's not going to be as hot the rest of this week.
The time for the AC is coming, though.
Jim Tansey said:It seems that with central AC at 72 your tank should be ok without a chiller.....no?
Something (lights) is pumping a lot of heat into that tank, do you use fans?
Well, not really.smcnally said:Matt, I don't they are talking about melting an ice block in the tank. They are talking about using salt water in the bottle so it get's colder than fresh water. I don't think it matters though, does it?...
