MH lights heating my tank.

If it's not one thing, then it's another...
I came home this evening and my tanks temp was pushing 86.4. Ouch.
I turned off one MH, turned on the AC, and have a fan on the tank. It's
starting to cool off, but what now? Chiller? Any other tricks?

Just a follow up. I think 3 major things solved this problem:
* I added a second heater to keep the overall temp warmer
* Added a tank surface fan and sump fan that are on the same timer as
the MH lights
* drum roll...... Removed the ballasts from the sump enclosure. These
generate a lot of heat that the sump was picking up.
