bio cube high temp hurrey help

my bio cube is at 85 help what do i do....????????

 

Put ice cubes in a ziploc bag or a frozen water bottle in the tank to cool it.

 

thank you. Im a newbie

 

Is your heater set too high or your room temp too high?

 

turning off the lights will help. or running them for a shorter period of time. although that will only work temporarily until you can find a permanent solution. what type lighting system do you have? and do you have a\c there?

 

i think the room temp is too high cause the lights have been off for many hours now. Does the pump of the biocube heat the water or something

 

room temp is at 72-74 somewhere in there, sorrry

 

put a fan over the top and turn it on high

 

I had the same problem with my biocube 29. You can either point a fan on your tank or if you get a small fan, like the ones inside desktops, you can put it on the top of your tank or even inside by the lights to improve circulation and help keep the lights cool. Keeping a fan on my tank helped a lot.

 

any chillers you recommend????
