care to be more specific, i know most natives need really cold water but i know that there are some that will be ok at higher temps? i don't think any native i get is automatically doomed to die from over heating, i just need to find one that will be ok. i really don't think i need a chiller, a pair of 6" fans over the sump should be more than enough.
<i think a chiller would be much better in the situation. check out prices on them.>
i have before, everything i've ever seen for a tank my size costs in the neighborhood of atleast 500 bucks, more than i can afford at the moment, also they use A LOT of power and i'm try to use as little electricity as possible for this project(40w pump, 9 or 18w UV, maybe 20w in powerheads and another 20w in fans, no lights because it's outside) because i'm going to upgrade 2 other tanks in the near future and possibly start a nano reef and electricity here in cali is not cheap.
skipjack was just being "that way" and they won't actually die (well i guess everything dies eventually)
and look up DIY plans for a chiller, because i really think its the ticket you are gunna want.
