Hello to all...Just thought i would add my 2 cents worth on the "keeping
the tank cool" issue .
I have used this method a time or two when our electricity has gone out
in the summer time due to it being really hot...they said the
transformers burned out in several spots within the city, and it took
them the best part of a whole day to restore the cities service.
Anyway here is what i did i took a bath towel ( to cover the top of the
tank) and a beach towel (to cover the sides or ends as well as the front
of the tank) and wet them fully in cool or cold water...then ring them
out so they are not dripping all over the floor...
Then i would wrap the front and sides with the big wet beach towel ,and
lay the bath towel over the top of the tank...and clip clothes pins on
to them to hold them in place . then by using the process of
evaporation it lowers the tanks temp enough to make it safe for the fish.
When the towels start to dry out take them down and repeat the process
all over again.
I hope this may be of some help to you.
