Default Chillers

Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas on chillers and one that is not too expensive
for my 24 gallon Nano Cube Sal****er tank? The water temperature is
presently 80F and I am told that it should be around 76F.......is 80F around
76? Or in other words is my present temperature good enough at 80F? I am a
beginner and need some good advice. I am presently looking at:
http://www.petsolutions.com/Nano+Chi...505003-I-.aspx ..........this
tank is getting to be a money pit....

Thanks for any and all replies,

Russ & Kathy

Basically you want it around 75 to 80. If my tank hits 86,
then I turn the light off, as that is the point where I
say it's too warm for my tank. You can also use a fan
blowing across the top of the water in the tank to cool
the water. But yes 80 is just fine.
