    For those of you having trouble cooling down your tanks, heres an inexpensive product that definitely helps. My dad gave me the idea (works in the food industry) to use a product called rapi-kool. It was designed to cool 200 deg. soups down to room temp. before theyre stored in the fridge. The shape of it/ease of use, makes it MUCH more efficient than using ice/bags (that would melt in 2 minutes in a 90degree 28 gal tank). Not to mention, it will cool down ur tank quicker. The ONLY drawback of this product is finding space for it in your freezer.

    Hope this helps someone- thought id share

    Thanks! You're right about the freezer space, though.
