gopens Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 well finished the fan project i talked about last week. i would say it came out awesome. before i added the fans and the vent holes, my tank reached 82 degrees with in 30 minutes. my tank has been on for over an hour, and its holding at a nice 79 degrees. both fans blow inwards, and you can feel the air coming out of the 6 holes i drilled. the pic was taken minutes after i was done, so there is tons of dust. but it cleaned up well. any comments would be great. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCR Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 That's not bad at all. A suggestion. the holes you drilled, one last time. Take the hood off, and use some varithaine, or other sealer, on the cut out, bare wood, this will keep it from absorbing moisture, as your blowing air in and moist air is comming back up the holes. On low humidity days, you will use more water. keep a container of ro/di water ready for top off, DID you put the fans on a timer?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
