Hi, my new t5 lights are producing a lot of heat and is something that I was aware was going to do. Any recommendations that worked well for people to deal with the heat. Would just a aquarium chiller fan work fine?
 
I have T5 on my freshwater tank and while they produce a good amount of heat, I never had tank issues. Are you having a noticeable temp spike?
 
Anything with power running through it in an enclosed space will produce heat. Need more details about the setup. Fans can keep my tanks from heating up with multiple MH over them - they can handle nearly any heat from lights with ease, IME.
