Hey Kev. Another great video. You always cover the topics very well. Something to add from personal experience. A lot of people have equipment such as filters, transformers for lights and wavemakers etc placed in the cabinet. If the cabinet does not have proper ventilation the hot air made by these items will heat up the top of the cabinet and the heat can transfer up to the aquarium (even if styrofoam is used between the cabinet and the tank). Keep the videos coming buddy :)

To enhance the cooling effect of the bottles you could add salt to the water in the bottles. The freezing point of water decreases as the salt content increases. Adding 10 percent salt decreases the freezing point from 0 degrees Celcius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) to minus 6 degrees Celcius (21.2 degrees Fahrenheit). At 20 percent it decreases to minus 16 degrees Celcius (3.2 degrees Fahrenheit). Depending on your freezer you could go as low as minus 23 Celcius (-9.4 Fahrenheit). Have used this in a sump where it cooled faster and longer in comparison to plain water. Hope this helps.

My home has no AC as I live pretty far north and summers are short, but the last few years we've been getting more and more unusually hot weather. Last summer it got unbearably hot in the house for about a week. I was wondering if using frozen water bottles would be okay, and you answered my question right away! Now I'll be prepared for those July/August heat waves. Thanks again.

Was doing routine maintenance and cleaning of my chiller pump and after re-installation...... WHOOPS! Silly me! I forgot to plug it back in! Come home from work tonight and discovered the water was nearly boiling! (Not quite, but around 89 degrees.) Realizing it would take the chiller quite some time to bring the temp down to 80 I REMEMBERED THIS VIDEO! Had an old V8 jug of water frozen in the fridge. So I dropped it in the aquarium just awhile ago and I'll see what happens. Sure as heck won't hurt, right? Thank you Mr KaveMan for this suggestion!

Dang heater must have failed and never shut off. Temps were 10 degrees higher than normal when I caught it. Thankfully heater wasn’t over rated for the tank and I already had the frozen bottles in the freezer since I have heat issues with the bigger saltwater tanks during the summers. Just looking for ideas to cool it down a bit quicker but as you mentioned not too quickly. Thanks for the video looks like I was already doing everything I could.

Every summer I go in vacation for almost a month. The temperature of the house sometimes elevates to 31 Celsius. I know that's over the standard cichlid temperature but every late August I come home and find my fish ok! I never used feeders either! That's for almost 25 days.

86F...Thats very close to their optimal temp levels anyway. Im sure they would be fine at that temp all year round. Remember one of the best way to cure ICH is to raise temps to about 88-90F. So yes they can survive in high temps...but there's always a breaking point.

Sometimes I think you’re reading my mind! Just this week the temps started going up and I was researching tank chillers etc. let’s just say, unless I get some huge bonus at work or win the lotto, I won’t be getting any for my 11 tanks. 😬🤣💵 That being said, I have been doing the water bottles and fans. But you did give me other ideas that I didn’t read anywhere. What I’m most worried about is my 125g tank. I don’t want to add to many water bottles, but can’t seem to find that happy medium. Any estimates?
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
Lol, glad you enjoyed the video. I would use the same frozen bottle tactic in the 125. If you need 3 or 4 at a time try putting them together in a mesh bag tied up or clamped onto the corner of the tank where you get the most output flow to spread the cooler water. 👍

I keep a 120G on a covered patio. The outside temps can get to 95 in the summer. The tank is African Cichlids only (~15 Mbuna and Lake Malawi ). Temps in the tank is roughly 82.1 - 87.5F. I have not too many issues with the temperature being that high. I keep 2 large air stones and have an Overflows that is connected to a FX6. Do you see any issues long term? I was thinking of adding a few 120mm fans.

@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
They’re good up to about 85...but if they’re used to 87.5 already they should be fine. Just continue to over oxygenate your water 😁

I think you are great but I am sorry I don't agree with ice in the water if you do that you really have to know your fish and know what the correct temperature is but for example if you live in hot countries like Thailand for example and we are having the mother of all heatwaves right now and you have gold fish tetras and then some local fish in the same tank this can be tricky because the water temperature for each can differ and ice in water can cause shock and kill them. However I did come up with an idea to take a large water tank with pipes or a pipe going off it to the tank down a straw like tube in to the tank and some of the fish tank water mixed with a little ice creating a safe temperature for all say 28 c already mixed and the tank kept cool with the foil insulation and don't quote me on that temperature , then imagine a fan off fine the straw like tubes at the bottom of the tank but a fan on tiny tubes gently putting the cooler water in with several gentle pipes fan shaped sending bubbles going up to the top of the tank leaving it on until the alarm temperature beep stops or the safe temperature is reached and to also assist at the top of the tube a not fast wave maker it's hard to explain but I hope you get the jist and again using the same filtration and the tank water and ice already measured to cool slowly but effectively so not too slow but not to shock the fish could this work maybe. In Thailand you are talking 115 f for hour and hours and days and days and the Thai people and expats have ponds and fishtanks outdoors so I am trying to come up with a cheaper option to the expensive boxes and also so you can have multiple small gentle glass pipes for example blowing bubbles up and creating waves on top while cooling in a gentle manner and long term throughout those days and months now I don't know if this will work it's just an idea but maybe, what do you think? I just feel too many people will mess up using ice especially in hot countries and little education on aquariums kept outdoors and ponds . I saw the other day a load of koi huddled almost on top of each other in the corner of a pond not deep enough to handle these crazy heatwave temperatures with little shades and hot bath water 😢 not their fault no one experienced 3 months of boiling heat. Could this work do you think maybe 3 or 4 of these fans pumping gentle cool water for larger ponds again with the temperature going in kept at a cool 28c temperature and insulated . Just an idea I had and I am not a genius like you ❤

I have not done a water change. I will be doing it the same way you do with the submersible pump. So I will put prime in the basin that pumps into the 75g tank. But for those who don’t and just use the python, if you put tap water directly into the tank does it kill good bacteria? Or should you prime the 20% of water left in the tank first?
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
Yes exactly. You would add the prime to the remaining tank water first and then add in your new water.

Hi Kev, This is Karthic, I have the top filter system in my 73G tank. I have used filter gravels and bio rings for the filter setup with an another internal setup. Need to check with you if I add ceramic rings in a filter pouch and add inside the tank, will it provide the expected filtration outcome from the beneficial bacteria. Bz now I don't have space in the top filter to add more filter mediums
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
It will grow some bacteria, like every other surface in your tank. But not as much as if its in a filter. Reason being the filter keeps oxygenated water flowing throw it while when its in a bag in the tank its just sitting there.

What's up Kev. Great video on temperature. I have a question. I haven't had a chance to install my AC yet, since not all days are hot. My tank temperature goes up to about 84F during the day and drops to about 81.5F at night during these warm days in NYC. Not much difference from my average temperature of 79-80F. Can such small temperature differences cause stress on them? They look perfectly normal, haven't noticed any unusual behavior. I have very good circulation and surface agitation.
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 года назад
not really, because the temperature change is slow and gradual. your heater should keep the tank to a minimum temp, like if you got it at 79-80 it wont go below that. If it heats up a few degrees during the day to 84 they should still be fine...its the 90's and up when you need to start worrying and trying these strategies.
