Hey Tango why?
with good flow through the sump/OF shouldn't it all be the same temp..ie good constant mix.If there is a bit of a temp differential I would want it in the sump not with my fish and corals, No?
Since ,on hot days (prolly most days) reef tanks are mostly heated by their lights, making the tank out flow hotter than the in flow....so shouldn't one cool this hotter water as it gets to the sump?
Thanks
