Smann Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 If anyone gets in a overheating situation I have a chiller from my 180 I would lend out, I dont want to sell it right now. I have a couple mag pumps to hook up drop in and all you would need is a 3/4 return tube and your're chillin. Its not pretty but it works PM me if you get in a bind 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smann Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Fill the freezer with water bottles and put them in the sump when the water temp starts pushing 80+. Most tanks should be fine up to about 85 then I would start to worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Can't wait to see the new system!(clap) Chiller is going to heat up the room too much I am thinking but appreciate the offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Another tip is to change the lights so they come on early morning as well. I run AC but it has a hard time in 100 degree weather around 6 PM. By switching the lights to come on between midnight and noon it keeps it from going too high. (At 79.8 right now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
