Biocube 32 cooling issue solved! - 3D printed.

Good to hear. I might try one of those fans out. While my fan is not super noisy, if the room is quiet, I do hear it go on.
Putting it in my shopping list.

Next time you’re in Chattanooga, I’ll take you up in that
Where can I get one of these brackets from?

There are multiple online 3d printing companies, or you can check with your local library. Many will 3d print things for you very inexpensively.
 
Hello! I love this idea.. I know this is an old thread but are you able to print one? Happy to pay for time/material and shipping!
 
Biocubes are known for their lack of cooling with a hood on. I have solved this by creating a bracket to hold a computer fan in one of the cable ports. It is available on Thingiverse for those of you who have a 3d Printer. Snaps right into place. - Hooked into my Inkbird controller and I never had to worry about overheating again. Just had to re-route all my cables to the other port.

If anyone has any questions, let me know.

How do you wire in the fan being that it is 12v? I have a inkbird but that is 120v
 
Thank you so much. This probably actually saved my tank. These Wyoming summers are brutal. 100 F today and I am currently watching my temp drop because of this amazing idea.

Once again, thanks so much.
