Two important factors affect the water temperature in the aquarium: firstly the room temperature and secondly direct sunlight. If the room temperature in summer increases significantly, it is important to check the temperature in the aquarium regularly. Aim for 24-26 °C. Temperatures above 30 °C are a problem and can cause substantial damage to fish and plants. And never expose an aquarium to direct sunlight. The higher the temperature, the less effectively the oxygen (which is vital for the animals) dissolves.
Easy to install
The bracket of the cooling fan is placed onto the aquarium rim (up to max. 2.4 cm thickness) and fixed with clamp screws.
Cools by evaporation
The JBL PROTEMP Coolers for freshwater and marine aquariums cool between 2-4 °C with the help of cross-flow fans. The air flow helps the warm water to evaporate at the water surface and thus generates evaporative cooling. This is comparable to the evaporation cooling effect when wet skin is exposed to the wind.
Safety
The water cooler has a safety cover grid and is operated with an extra-low voltage of 12 V.
A cooler is a device that is used to lower the temperature of the water in a fish tank. It is typically used in situations where the water temperature in the tank has gotten too high and needs to be cooled down to a more appropriate range for the specific type of fish being kept. Different species of fish have different temperature requirements, so it's important to monitor the water temperature in the tank regularly and adjust the heater or cooler as needed to ensure that the temperature stays within the appropriate range.
There are several different types of coolers that can be used in a fish tank. One common type is a chiller, which is a refrigeration unit that uses a compressor and a cooling coil to remove heat from the water in the tank. Another type is an evaporative cooler, which works by blowing air over a wet surface to cool and humidify the air. This cooled and humidified air is then circulated through the tank to help lower the water temperature.
It's important to use a cooler carefully in a fish tank, as sudden changes in water temperature can be stressful for the fish and may cause them to become sick. It's a good idea to monitor the water temperature in the tank regularly and adjust the cooler gradually to ensure that the temperature stays within the appropriate range for the specific type of fish being kept.
Can it be mounted on suction cups and are there cut outs on the filter case to install these by?
No, the M Bioflow does not have any suction cups to hold the filter to the aquarium. There are no holes on the filter designed to hold such suction clips.
