Hello everyone! I am in ny and my 12 gal jbj nano is already hitting the 81 degree mark at some points in the day. What is the best remedy for this a chiller? If so what brand model do you recommend?

Thanks!

Can you explain the ice probe? Dumb question Im sure but do you mean putting ice in the tank? I have also seen using a fan recommended. Do they mean a regular house fan?

81 really isn't a bad temperature. I keep my tank at 82.

As for a fan, I would probably throw a computer fan on the tank to blow across the surface of the water.
