Posted	temperature
05-03-2006 12:25 by luke	i am having a real problem keeping my temperature down, the lights heat up the tank and when there off it doesnt cool down quick enough so the temperature keeps goin up and up. i left the lights off for a few days only switcjin them on for a hour or 2 and the temp remained stable i dont really want to fork out for a chiller what else could i do?

05-03-2006 13:48 by dean	hi just get yourself a small fan to blow the heat out simple as that works for me
05-03-2006 13:49 by kay	i hsd the same problem and tried fans but in the end bouhgt a chiller i know its expensive but better than losing stock
