Hey all, I got a chiller for my axolotl tank and now condensation keeps gathering on the outside. Is there a way to fix this or will my tank be stuck like this???View attachment IMG_1373.jpeg

make sure the room is ventilated, a dehumidifier would help.
the moisture is from the air in the room, due to the tank being colder than the room moisture collects on the glass (a bit like a mirror steaming up after a shower)

Hi,
My axolotls are in an aquarium in my garage, north of my house, non heated, so I don't need any chiller (temperature range : 4-21°C).
Nevertheless there are temperature and moisture variations between day and night and I sometimes observe condensation outside the glass. It generally lasts 1 or 2 hours. Not a real problem for me.
