Hey guys so I have a 30g so not really look for a chiller or anything. Tank is cooled just fine using a fan. Curious are there any products that I can plug in both heater and fan via outlet that controls what temp the fan turns on vice versa. Neptune apex type kinda out of my range atm looking for a cheaper alternative. Last resort going to have the fan on a timer that turns on the times I figured to be hot and turns on when its close to evening. I bought this but havent been able to set it up correctly to complicating for me hahahah. But the concept is nice just looking for something similar. Thanks guys

I did that with my first biocube. Have the fan on a timer during mid day and let the heater pick up the slack if the fan drops the temp too much. Not efficient but it worked.

Quick update my gf emailed the company that made the product so far so good. Its working like a charm. Going to finalize it tomm and I will post my thoughts. Cause if it does what it suppose to this is by far the best bang for the buck digital thermometer/ thermostat. Pretty much I set it at 78 with a difference of -1,+1. At 77 heater turns on and at 79 fan turns on. So far so good.

Sorry guys been super busy....and totally forgot to post. But man for 35 bucks my tank goes from 77-78.3 max range Im sure I can make it tighter but Im good with it. My house doesnt have ac. And it does get pretty warm in here. I highly recommend this product will be buying more in the future. If u guys did buy it. Pm for the input data. Which can be confusing without company help
