How are you keeping your tanks cooled

[djrice69]

Do you guys have any new creative way to keep your tank cooled?

Either chiller or central a/c thats about it

I have in the past placed frozen water bottles in my refugium, 2 or 3 in a 55 gallon they last for about 30 min to an hour but it helps. Turn lights off, have fan blow on water

AC at 76 where the DT sits & door always remains closed.

1200 watts halide, no problem. Just use evaporation

Anyone set their ac for house to like 73? I’m assuming you be fighting with the heater

So great! Is that a big ol vape rip?

i don't have the reef running right now... but you don't have to have your AC to 72 degrees... LOL... my ac would always be at about 78 and keep the tank at about 80F... even during the cold times, i would keep my water hot... around 80F constant...

For demonstration purposes only.


As Phil Swift would say: DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME

AC and a chiller as a back up.
