How long has your tank been set up?

[Drumachine09]

You say that your Ammonia, Nitrites, and Nitrates are normal. What are your normal levels, to be specific?

[smooththg69]

ammonia stays at 0
nitrate 20 ppm
nitrite 0
hardness 75 ppm soft
alkalinty 80 ppm
ph 7.5

I did just check my temps again as I only check them in the morning and it hovering around 91 degrees so i put a bag of ice in it and the air wall and now its at 85

tank has been up about 4 months

I'm guessing that's your culprit.. :(

That and the fact that this WAS over-stocked for a 30g, though your parameters were normal ..

What kind of heater do you have in there?

Will want to get it out of there and get another one..

Visitherm Stealths are good.

What kind of filter do you have in there?

I have a marineland penguin 350 rated for up to 75 gallons whisper adjustable 100 watt heater and a bunch of plants. looks like I will be shopping tomarrow for a dorm fridge to convert the freezer part to a chiller.

Where are you from?

You're saying the heater temp. thermostat didn't fail, but your room temperature is high enough to get your tank up to 92F?

[smooththg69]

im in miami florida and yes the heater works just never comes on because its so hot in this house I even put a window ac in and its just keeping the tank at 85-86 with lights off and hood open .

Ouch..

Then yeah, you'll have to invest in a chiller..

Sorry about your fish.. :(
