Hey all,
I have a 6 g JBJ nano tank on my office desk. It has 5lbs of live rock and sand in it. I think my office must be turning the a/c off on the weekends because when I walked it today the temp was 82.3! It was 78 when I left Friday afternoon. Lights are on a timer. Any ideas on maintaining a lower temp or do I just need to take it home while I know I can regulate the temp. Do they make nano chillers for these guys. Any advice is appreciated.
 
More surface agitation or a fan blowing on the surface could do it. Will result in more evaporation though

I would run the flow towards the top, with that being said if the temp in the room has no A/C and its hot then obviously the temp will rise.

They do make nano chillers and they aren't cheap whatsoever I would look into maybe a fan to blow on top of the water if you keep having issues.
