Mmm...Salty.
I have a 20L set up just to keep myself entertained with some damsels until I upgrade in the summer/fall.
I'm using a generic no-name LED fixture that I bought off one of my LFS guys who gets a lot of his LED's DIY...and I never had a problem with them heating my water in the past.
I have an Emperor 400 on the back with Chaeto in it and an old 2.5 gallon hood that i'm using for the VHO bulb to grow the macro.
I set my heater to 78 but just now I noticed the temp was sitting at around 90F...is it possible that I have a screwy heater? or would the light on the back really be able to heat the water up as it passes through the filter?
I had this problem this afternoon also and ended up doing a 25% WC with cold tap water just so I could lower the temp. Please help!
