water surface is agitating already. I'll see what I can do about doing more. First I'll have to fix the seal at the top. JBJ does a poor job sealing the top rim to the glass. I know a mod to increase water flow is to use a mj900 or mj1200. Do these generate less heat than the stock jbj pump? Other than that, I don't think I'd like to do many or any other mods. I wonder if jbj had added 1" more clearance for the lights would there be such heat issues. I'd rather control heat more by my heater than other equipment.
Bil2k. your information is consistant with mine. I think its safe to say that a stock jbj nano WILL run 7F-8F higher than whatever the ambient temperature is.
Reefwick, thanks for the agitation tip. I'll fix the seam and try to do more surface agitation. I'd rather not flip open the front lid unless absolutely necessary.
