My 80-gallon's overheating consistently, which is why I wanted a chiller so badly. My 80-gallon's already been slightly over 90°F mostly because of the weather here, and it's only going to get hotter. My 80-gallon has pretty weak lights, too.

Nope - actually the pump tripped the GFI outlet off twice while we were running it, so we didn't even think to turn the lights on yet. Actually, we haven't gotten the ballasts situated yet so they can be plugged in yet, either.

Yeah, I just need to get some DI water to keep on hand to do manual top-off, because the water's evaporating pretty quickly even without any fans being on.
