    Thank you

    Thanks, the one taking the most space is an A. formosa and it has broken the surface.

    Hey john, quick question. do you run a chiller? if so can you run the hose after a reactor into the chiller then the tank? my tank went all the way up to 84.5 degrees =( disaster is coming!! i now have a fan blowing through the surface. how well does it keep temp cooler?

    I do not use a chiller. My heater is set for 80 and controlled by my Reef Angel. I keep my AC set at 75 and have lots of water surface exposed to air.

    You may not be forcing enough water through the chiller. Chillers will add a great deal of heat to whatever room they are in.

    Fans blowing directly on the surface do an excellent job of lowering the temp of your tank. I have one $10 6" clip on fan for my 55 that has no problem keeping the tank at 78° during 90° days (no AC in the house). As long as you have an ATO with plenty of water, you should be all set.
