Have a new 120 up and running since may. The temp keeps climbing if I leave the house open, but using AC makes the pH drop. Can I get action out of fans, or just go for the chiller?

Fans work fine or use kalk in your top off to keep the ph up while the ac is on.. I’m using kalk and just put a co2 scrubber online last night to battle my low ph since opening my doors is not a option in Vegas till October lol..

I should have mentioned, using Kalk and a CO2 scrubber. It just seems like everything is much better with fresh air.

Agreed! If it’s a option run your airline outside..
 
I did think of that. It’s not too hard and can go right into the skimmer. Thank you
That’s the cheapest and easiest way! I wanna do it myself but my skimmer is massive and I’m sure it’ll turn into a heater with my outside temps being 110-118 the last couple weeks and will hold for a good month at those temps. :face-with-rolling-eyes:

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
