:lol:I guess it helps we have a walk-out basement. Just open the doors in the evening and turn on a fan if it gets that warm. Which it did yesterday.

Tank is running with a chiller, and I am running with ice and cold beverages.
We had 2 weeks of rain in June.. i should know, I sat home from work, because the jobsite was too wet to work.. haha.. It has not been a stellar summer by any means IMO.. However the last few days, have been 'warm'.. :lol:

Is this where your hair gets all bleached out like the teak decks of your sailboat. These salt water tans you speak of.:lol::lol::lol::lol:

And lots of it!

Things are starting to heat up here (finally!). I splurged 9 bucks for a clip-on fan at Canadian Tire and will try pointing it into my sump.

I was going to buy a chiller until I saw the prices, and they add heat to your room as well!!! I opted to go for a large portable a/c unit from cosco. It cost me 450 and puts out 12000btu!! or you could spend 1500 - 2000 on a comparable chiller. I personally like to be comfortable when viewing my tank. so A/C is the way to go for me!!:mrgreen:

A/C is nice but get ready for a shock when you get your hydro bill! :mrgreen:

I did the same thing too, bought a AC unit from costo to do my kitchen/familyroom where the fish are. It was all good until I upgraded my lights and now I have found out the hard way that the AC and Tank and Big Screen TV are all on the same circuit. Cant run them all without blowing the fuse.
:cry:
