Was watching my temps yesterday and none of my fans turned on (set to go on at 80 for the fan on the tank, and another set for 81 in the sump). Today maybe another story, but I have my chiller waiting if I need to hook it up.

My air may go on at when I cruise home for lunch but my tank has been solid 77.5 to 78 even the last couple days. No chiller or fans. Open top though and the back of my stand is open as well.

AC is set at 77. tank has been steady at 79. Also running rimless with open back stand so the ATO has been depleting like there's no tomorrow

No need for a chiller at my house. I did leave the stand doors open though to help vent it out.

If I let the tank creep to 81 it likes staying there for 2-3 days and goes back down on its own without ac or fans. But I'd rather keep it between 78-79. Plus can't come home to a muggy house.

The lower 79's and 78 is ac turning on.

I'm thinking about Lindsey and how she will have to have a chiller and how muggy it gets in that part of the country in the summer rains.
