Is there a DIY chiller to cool down the water? My water in tank runs between
75 and 85 f. I only have a 20g tank.

Need to know why you have a ten degree swing in temperture. If it is from your lights you can mount a small cooling fan to blow across top of tank when lights are on. This should keep temperture constant when lights are on.If you have a power head on it might be causing to much heat and might have to go to a smaller one.

I have both light and powerhead I have not seen the light on for the heater so not even sure if it still works it is about 10+ months old but less then a year. Not sure what it is. I live in south Fl so it stays warm here.
