so ive been tring to keep my rez temp down, but its been at 72-79 fluctuation due to normal room temp. i noticed some stuff floating on the top of the water(a couple days after adding hygrozyme), so i skimmed it off. i had only been running a water pump and that had seemed to have been creating enough movement and o2,but now im running an air and water pump. problem is ive noticed what looks like rot at the base of my ladys. anyone know what it is or what to do??

    When dealing with res temps I have found it to be very easy to lower the temps by adding a frozen water bottle (32oz depending on size of res.) to the res. Remember to check the temps and to repeat as necessary. Only other option would be to buy a water chiller. Check ebay or craigslist for better prices.
