Great weather for tennis...tank at 84 degrees

[danno]

My 24g Cardiff hit 84 degrees today. It has the 150W disco ball over it with no top. It started out this morning at 76 degrees. I fear that is waaay too much swing to keep anyone happy. I've had the AC on in the house since yesterday so the room is at a steady 74.

I'm going to get one of those desktop clamp on fans tomorrow and see how much help that is but I think I'm going to need a chiller. Any recommendations for a small chiller with heater controller capability? I like to keep my tank on the cool side...76 or even 75.

To top it all off I got thrashed on the tennis court 2-6, 3-6.

fans and an auto top off help alot. I would suggest getting a temp controller for the fan and heater and just set the heater to 80 as well. No need to run it lower especially in the summer.

My old 15g had a 150w halide and 2x65w PC's and if that thing can stay at 82 all summer(room temp 78-80..dad didnt like a/c) yours should have no problem.
