Good luck and stay cool!
Can I offer you up a different more effective DIY solution. This is a old school hack I’ve used for 20 years and it works great. Get a styrofoam container, about 6 feet of airline tubing and a toms aqua lifter. All together will cost you about $30. Some you might have laying around. Anyways hook up the tubing to the aqua lifter so it pulls and returns water to you tank and coil a few feet in container. Notch out a little room so you can still close the lid for the tubbing. Dump in ice on top of the airline tubing and close the lid. The aqua lifter will slowly return 3.5 gph of cold water in your tank for the entire day. If it’s working to good reduce the coil of airline tubing in the container.
Great fan, great content I hope it works out for you. I don't run a chiller because is too expensive but I run my ac to keep my tank cool. But I love your idea. Thanks
gio210a been running AC this week lol. I just want to avoid chiller because of the power bill
Dude - take you temp down 2 degrees (or 1C) - In summer I take mine down from 25 to 24C - then if it gets hot I have an extra bit leeway. I only throw a couple of waters in the freezer and put em in the sump - besides that no fan (but I have a well insulated apartment. Good stuff with the fan ;)
I have the Inkbird wifi (only heating) but when I am away I can check the tank ;) Love it
Yea it hasn’t been this hot in a while. Usually we just bear it but this week has been crazy hitting 109 and 114 at some places
awesome, informative, thanks for the share
🙏🏻
I know 2 guys who bought an inkbird. Both reported they did not work correctly after 6 months. Which makes sense as they are made in China
They have been fine for me. Most of the time it’s the probe that needs replacing.
Sick setup! Definitely want to give salt water a try!
Hello nice tank
🙏🏻
Looks like Phoenix or So-Cal weather.
You don't need such a big fan tho :P I got a smaller version of it and it works like crazy... 3 degrees lower
I honestly did not know it was this big. They have even bigger versions that are 4 or even 6 fans long
Wow! It's hot there. What state are you living in?
Southern California
Dude how is your stuff alive at 85 degrees ! you should get a chiller to keep it cool and consistent
the damn tank is overcrowded. Tangs should not even be in there
I love your fish can you recommend some fish or invert good to eat algae because I have to clean my glass tank everyday and you know how pain is it. What hesitated me is introduce new fish in the tank with itch 🤦♀️ and I hate to treat itch that’s the most long process ever. Anyway please give me some good advice for remove diatom on the sand bed and hair algae on glass window. My nitrate is swinging between 5- 25ppm 😆😬
Lawn mower blenny and yellow tang clear hair algae well. For diatoms on sand look into your flow for that section
Thanks 😊 btw when you buy new anemone i saw you only acclimated them but not dip it , is it necessary to dip like coral or not ? Before watching on RUclips I’m scare to have anemone but Afte look at your tank I think I should give it a try. If my tank just finish the cycle is it ok for anemone to join in ??
You should drip it for more success.
Are you from hawaii?
Not from Hawaii.
Jesus Christ I’m glad I don’t live where you do haha
Also yeah, you should save up for a real chiller
ive been dragging on spending on that
yea but a chiller makes so much noise and blows all the hot air into the room! how did u do it?
