So I recently got a 70 gallon tank off of craigslist for 40 bucks so I can grow highland-type plants in it. It's going to go in my basement, so at night I can open the windows a bit to cool off the room and get the nightly temp drop. However, I will be going off to college soon (locally though, so I could occasionally visit and check on the plants I couldn't bring), and my parents do not want to crack the windows every night (which, I suppose is understandable, but I mean, how could you not do anything for Nepenthes?). My mom doesn't want a large device like a room air conditioner to cool them off at night (though I might be able to persuade her, it would be useful during the summer if people want to retreat to the basement to really cool off).
So basically I'm thinking of making a peltier-based cooling system. I am wondering if anyone with experience in making these for vivariums could help me out.
Thanks!
