Shrimps tank and fan

31-01-2007, 05:18 PM

I'm using a fan for my 1ft tank now. Wanted to check with you guys if it's possible to keep the fan on 24/7, afraid it'll cause a fire or something (running all the time). Was thinking of getting another one to be a backup.

Any ideas?

Well, the temp in my living rm appears to be ard 28 - 30 deg, somehow. So when the temp's that high, my shrimps don't do really well. When the fan is on, it drops to abt 26 or so.

I never thought about this. I keep my fans on 24/7. Turn off only when I changing water and need the room on top to move around. Maybe I'll turn off my fans tonight and see what happens to the temp.
