Default Heat/Tank Dilemma


"Brian" wrote in message
news
In my office I have a 125 freshwater tank with just community fish. My
air conditioner is crapping out with the temp 100 outside. The AC tech
wants to do his thing this WED where its projected to be around 95. AC
will be off ALL DAY..Tank right now is 81. Normally is't 77/78. Anyone
have any suggestions? I know about ice etc but I'm not going to be
here when this takes place. How hot do you think the tank would get
and how high can the fish take?

Thanks

============================
To add to what Ex Pat said, you can also add an extra airstone to make sure
the water has plenty of oxygen since warmer water holds less.
