Temp

[senget]

Halo, everybody! I'm new in keeping marine fishes. I have noticed that the temp of my 2ft tank is always above 30 degree celcius. What should I do 2 lower down the temp other than using fan?

Hi,

senget, you better ask the mods to change the title of your topic before you get a tick tock.

titles must be more descriptive. example: experiencing high temp in 2ft tank - what to do ?

other than use a fan? chiller.. if chiller is not an option then don't turn on the aquarium lights, if thats still a problem don't turn on anything electrical, filters, pumps, etc... but of course that's just silly..

So it's either fans or chillers, or both... other methods have always run into problems..

Yeah. Use fan or chiller. Do not use the ice in a container method.

Bite the bullet and buy a chiller. Resun ones are pretty affordable, though quite noisy.

May I know what will happen if this method is used?

Sorry, my english no good. You mean it will cool the water temp down too much?

[Golden Tooth]

Sudden increase n decrease in temperature causes stress.
