temp swings

In my 65G Reef tank recently added UV Sterilizer which has increased temp by a degree. Also, 2 return pumps, a Reactor pump, UV pump, and Skimmer also are contributing to the heat in the tank. I was maintaining my tank temperatures at 77-78F before adding a UV Sterilizer. To cool down the tank...
