wooby Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I live in Texas, and summers are hot. My tank was running about 80.5 during the day, and 78.9 at night with the refugium lights on. Since I completed this mod, my tank is running 4-5 degrees cooler. Only took half an hour to complete, and around 30.00 in supplies 2 80mm fans, 1 molex ac/dc adapator(2X12v connector plugs), 2.5 circle blade to cut holes out on back lid I am just waiting on the grills to cover the top to complete the mod Link to comment
jamescstein Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Nice, do you have it hooked up to a temperature sensor to turn on and off if the tank gets hot? Link to comment
cromag27 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Nice job. Will probably get more evaporation, but I'm guessing the trade off is worth it. Link to comment
wooby Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Not hooked up to a sensor as of yet. Have to Bluefish controller, and waiting to see what they add in the means of sensor module. I am about to add an ATO to the tank next, any suggestions? Link to comment
cromag27 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If you got an apex you could temp control the fans and hook up ato float switches, and control your lights. then sell the bluefish. Link to comment
CARBON Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Revive a dead thread to see how this has been holding up? This is the cleanest fan install I have seen. Did you end up getting a grill cover? Link to comment
