Are you looking for the smarter way to combat rising aquarium temperatures this summer?
As we get into the summer months and everybody enjoys the warmer climate, we as reef hobbyist are often faced with the troubles of increasing water temperatures in our aquariums. Water temperatures exceeding 85 degrees can have an impact on oxygen levels and ultimately stress and even kill aquatic livestock.
High temperatures are dangerous for our tank inhabitants
Generally, most reefers take care of the issue by either the use of a chiller or the installation of canopy and sump fans.
Chillers and Fans are a common way to keep water temperatures down
A Chiller is a good way to cool down a tank but before we go out and spend hundreds of dollars on a large piece of equipment, let’s keep in mind a couple of drawbacks…
