100+ in Oregon?! People up there must feel like they're getting roasted. It's been pretty muggy lately down here in S. California.

you're telling me lol.Normally its only 85-90 but we haven't had much of a summer this year so i guess its making up with some really hot days
float some water bottles. 2 in the freezer 2 in the tank.. interchange once it melts. That + AC really helps

What about installing a small window A/C and just cooling your fish room.
