Is it good to place tank near window with evening sun? I realised the algea grow very fast leh..

not to mention that the potential to have a "boiling" tank. Unless you running a chiller.

You know, we stay in a damn hot region.

My main tank is in the corner and out of the way of any sun. However bcos its a enclosed tank and not much ventilation at that corner, the water temperature is higher than my QT which is located at the window with morning sun.

My QT just a 2 ft tank with no hood or lights or what so ever. so very well ventilated by the air coming from the window. So temperature is okay, morning sun is not directly on the tank. But water evaporate very fast and of course algae grow like mad.

So main tank should stay out of the morning sun otherwise scrub like mad every week.
