Curious what people are doing to keep the temperature in your tank down during this heat?

No Chiller, T5’s, and cool my house to 68-72 and my tank stays 78.
You can set up some passive cooling with some good quality fans. Works very well.

Keep the house on 73
RR-Man...are you running a CaRx? That pH is pretty low. Have you calibrated your probe?

Had to put a box fan over 1 tank to bring the temp down, electric bill was 789. Told the wife the house is too cold.

Use a small fan over my sump and keep house at 75. Now my mixing station in the garage is another story, I cant keep it below 85

Holy Shi..... What are you using in your house that's burning that much energy if you don't mind me asking?
How much electricity does your pool add to your monthly cost? How many KWH does it use to operate? I was thinking about having one put in.
mine was 489, we have two A/C's, a pool + my fish room. house was built in 2001 only has single pane glass. Not very energy efficient.
Holy. What would be the cost to install dual pane windows?
My heaters still have to come on to warm the aquarium with the AC set to 76 during the day and 70 at night.
