Got back from a 5 week vacation to find my tank temp at 87
A number of coals are dead and couple of fish. Rest seems ok
I put fans all over it, did 2 50% water changes, ice bags etc
I now have the tank averaging 81. No matter what i do that's the best i can get
My home temp is between 72 and 76 depending on time of day
Tank is on an outside wall but no direct sun. Tank size is 80g plus sump
I turned all lights of except leds
I was thinking of trying a chiller but no way it can go in the house. Wife already complains of how much space equipment takes up, plus the additional noise
So to the question - has anyone placed chiller on outside of house, what's impact to cooling ability?
