    Do you have a sump Dea Sea Diver?

    fans mounted to blow across surface area can cool Via increased evaporation

    bottles of fresh water frozen in the freezer can be placed in tank to cool on really hot days

    if you have corals, temps over 85 degrees are the danger point IME

    you should be able to keep it below that with the above ideas
