    How to cool a bp tank?
    So, it was 104 degrees at my house today and all of my tanks got to around 98+ degrees, and my question is how do i cool them down when they are that hot?

    Put it in the freezer...jk lol. I either spray the tank down with cold/ice water or if you have a mesh top, soak a towel with some ice water and put it over the mesh. Hope that helps!

    create air movement with a fan blowing across the top as well. :gj:

    How warm is the rest of your house? I am not really understanding how the outside temps are going to affect you snakes cage so much. You were not sitting in a 98 degree house were you?

    Yeah, no ac. And the only fan we have was cooling down the rat rack so more wouldn't die. But yeah put the cold towel over the top and it dropped the temp by 10 degrees. Thank you for all the help

    Freeze some small water bottles, wrap them in a towel and lay one in the tank.

    If you keep a few frozen, you can swap them out as they melt, and thus keep your babies cool.
