Cute! How often will have to do water changes? I'm guessing every 2 days?

Yeah prob every few days but it looks like heat is going to be a problem... at a nice 92 F when I left today

What've you got for lighting over that? Is it completely enclosed?

One of the 9" Coralife PC fixtures... I tried raising it up a bit to allow for a little evap b/c the light was basically enclosing the tank. I'm curious to check the temp when I get home. Might have to go LED. But little little zoo frag and yellow polyps were still wide open at 92F

Those PC bulbs are brutal(!!) for heat! LED would probably be the way to go, if you wanted you could even DIY for well under $20.

Just trying to fit a little computer fan in the light fixture now to sort out my heat problems. Also trying to fit some leds in the back corner over the fuge and also trying to fit the heater head inside the light also. SO just the little control knob will poke out the top and because it's about 6.6 inches tall and the tank is only 5 so they interfere with each other.

I'm also thinking about making a "water tower" for an auto top off. Try to make something cool kinda like all the water towers you see in old towns but for the tank.

So i got two fans the heater and an led for the fuge in the hood. So if they dont solve my heating problems i quit. Only problem is fans are a little louder than I'd like and hood not as 'clean' as it was.

cool, so did the fans help?

yeah they keep it around 80-81 instead of 92. fans are a Little loud which kinda sucks. I put on of the lobster and the geometric hawk in there for now cause I'm draining the 2 foot think they'll be ok?. seen the fish room very nice.

Maybe, should be OK for a little while. Probably not the best thing, what about the other fish?
