Just concern about the white cloud minnows as i never have them before. Just bought some minnows today, will see how they work together  |

QUOTE(kurangak @ Mar 16 2012, 10:04 AM) CFM = cubic feet/minute, in simple term is the amount of air it moves per minute. thanks for the information here~! i think the best compromise in term of size vs CFM is still a 12v 8x8x2.5cm DC fan (normal PC ventilation fan) n about evaporation, i think i read it somewhere, the principle behind cooling an aquarium with a fan is by promoting more evaporation. like wiping sanitizing alcohol on ur hand. when it evaporates, ur hand becomes cool right? so more evaporation = more temperature lowered. i think water evaporation is a price to pay for cooling an aquarium with fan. my aquarium has a surface area of 16x13 inch, water from my aquarium evaporates approx. 1cm per day. im using a single 8x8x2.5 12v DC fan only. it is suffice to lower my aquarium temp from 30-31 deg C to 25-26 deg C, n sometimes in the morning it can go as low as 24. i dun even hav AC in my room...hehe... additional reading : read here if u really into DIY   my tank is about 5 gallons, is it enough to lower the temperature by adding only one 8x8x2.5cm DC fan? thanks! |
