Temp control with RA and fans!

My temps over the last several days. The high was 78.4 degrees. AC is at 76 most of the time, but goes up to 80 on weekdays between 1400 and 1900. I have a clip-on fan over the sump and one over the tank for cooling. High temp on the chart is 78.4. Temps here have been 95-100 degrees daily. The low part of the chart was a stormy night and the heater kicked on.

I have very similar results in my 90 Gallon tank. I put 2 120v AC fans in the hood of my tank during initial setup a few years back. They are mounted on the front left and front right of the hood angled at the center of the tank. I could not be happier with the heating and cooling effects of my tank, the fans keeps a 2 degree swing all summer, 79 to 81. In the winter I get 77 to 79 with a 150W heater.
