Im having trouble getting my tanks temperature to go below 80 and i was wondering if there is something that you can use to cool down a tanks temperature.
Tank to hot

What are your heaters set for, how many heaters an how many watts? You may just need to turn them down a bit.
I only have one heater and its set at 75 so it never even turns on. THe tank is only a 20 gallon.

You may not even need the heater, since the waters already that warm, What heat sources are near the tank?
The tank is about 2 feet from a boiler, and i cant adjust much cause unfortunatly i live in an old dorm. But it never seems to be on so I dont know. I use a basic flourescent light and it doesnt feel like it gets to hot.
flourescent lights Can generate a fair amount of heat, But it pretty much gets disipated threw the Hood an air, that shouldnt make any diff though. Id say move it a few feet away from the heater (just to make sure) Dorm room heat usually comes on at night.
