This is a 20 gallon innovative marine tank and I’m running my old Radeon gen4 xr30 on it and it sits at about 80 degrees which is hotter then I want it to be any one got tips for me?

You could try raising the light fixture up a bit, or positioning a small fan to blow air across the surface of the water should help.

What's your budget and how high tech do you want to get?
1. Simple clip on fan $
2. Ice probe chiller or small thermal electric inline chiller $$

A fan will cool it but then you have to have a 2 stage inkbird or something to turn it on and off. I think Tunze makes an all in one fan for a nano, or something from amazon.

80 isn't even a concern though, the chiller on my fowlr shuts off at 79.9 lol. My sps tank will float between 81 and 84 with no issues.
