| -6 deg c? Awesome ! What's the humidity there? It must be really low to get that sort of cooling. Also how much water did you lose due to evaporation after 24 hours? |

typically in mumbai and surrounding humid areas the drop would be between 2 to 4 deg.
Warm Regards

Rajiv,
What was the effect on CO2 with so much of turbulence in water.
Did you increase the CO2 bubble rate to adjust the loss? |

| Any idea about rated displacement (cfm) of this fan? I would still prefer a regular 120mm dc fan. Looking at the wing span, Im not that sure if it can move good amount of air through. Ex. A 80mm fan with 2500rpm moves less air compared to 120mm fan with 1500rpm. |

I have not increase CO2 bubble rate. Plants are going well. But today the thermometer again showing 26 degree Celsius temperature so I am planning to install one more fan. |
