You’re better off asking @DoobieNoobie or @peachfuzz.
You may want to leave the water chiller out of the tent if possible. You should have an access port at the bottom that you could run the lines in and out of.
@dbrn32 I’ve had good luck with my submersible but yes by using inline pumps the water only goes through it so less heat transfer that way.

Water chiller is already ran outside the tent. Only things in the tent that may put off heat are the oscillating Fan, led light, air pump everything else is either submersible or outside the tent.

Right now I opened a vent on the tent and opened the window alittle. It’s about 35F outside so it’s bringing down the temp in the room but still need to know any other ways possible
Hmm well you’re still in ok range for tent as far as plants go. So are you bringing air in with a fan or just passive intake? Because the only other way I can think of is improved air circulation. But for that to work you might need a small desk fan on the light to make sure it’s moving the air around the light before it exhausts.
I have the 12” oscillating fan that blows right at/under the light. Currently it’s just a passive intake I tried a 4” fan but then had positive pressure in the tent even with a 6” exhaust fan.
Yeah you will need to find a way to get a little more air flow somewhere. Someone else might have a better idea but to me that’s the easiest solution.
You may be getting growers anxiety syndrome. To me, your res, tent and water temps are fine.

That sounds great someone was telling me I needed my canopy temp to be around 70F

I have run mine as high as 90° before. My rdwc has submerged pump in 5 gallon recirculating bucket running 24/7. To cool I can add three 2 liter frozen bottles into recirc bucket to cool the 27 gallon reservoir.

Lol. I was doing the same thing with the ice bottles. I just got my water chiller installed so much nicer

I added some coco plants this grow so I can use hydro without the water temps being trouble. So far they are outperforming the soil and rdwc.
