Hi guys.
SO last night I sat next to my cycling tank and glanced at the temperature, it was 29.9! No lights on, only return pump, heater and 2xRW4's running.
Could my return pump be heating the water?? Its a sicce silent, I remember when I got the equipment I ran the return pump, the skimmer pump and the reactor pump in a 25 litre bucket of water and vinegar solution (second hand stuff) and the water in the bucket was very very warm!
The temp went down by a few 0.2 degrees or so when I left the cabinet door open for a while. I put a big home fan on full pointed at the sump and turned the heater down to almost the 22 mark, this morning at 5:00 the temp with the cabinet door open and fan still blowing on full was at 26.something.
Something must be generating heat! Thoughts and help please?
