[scubajim]

I'm gonna be in the market for a dehumidifier soon( wifes complaining about the mildew). Does anyone have any oppinions. What brands are good and what features should i look for?

Also what size should i be looking for. I've got a 100 gallon tank evaporate maybe 1-2 gallons a day.

So i'm curoius does anyone else use a dehumidifier? Would i be better off just getting a fan to transfer air with the outside air?

I had one when i had my 180 it was an LG i got it off ebay. Was 65 pints and was digital so it would shut off when it got to the desired humidity

When I moved into my place a couple years back, the basement flooded due to poor irrigation design (like a week after I moved in). To dry up all the water, I bought a 45 pint dehumidifier that worked swimmingly. I found the best place to buy one was compactappliance.com. They typically have free shipping and other refurbs available pretty cheap. Check out their buying guide to help direct you to a model that will work for your application.
