HELP!!!! My New Cloner Is Getting Too Hot. PICS PICS

The water in my cloner is getting pretty warm. I know this is from the sub pump running 24/7 but is there anything i can do to bring the temp down?

Anyone have any experience in this?

any air cirulation? fans?

yea but i should rephrase that it is the water in the cloner that is getting warm

Man, you guys sure go through a lot of trouble just to clone plants.

...I don't think being "warm" is a problem for clones....they actually like the warmth....I like my water temps around 70-75f...what's your like?

yea i know that but my problem is its getting a lil to warm..... i dont have a thermometer so i couldn't tell you exactly but when i stick my hand in its pretty damn warm

My cloning bin is comprised of, a piece of plywood for a shelf. A clear plastic garbage bag(to make a mini greenhouse), 80w's of cool white flouresent, some tumbtacks, tape and some wire for suspensions. I always put a single layer of clay gravel or any clean gravel for the clones to sit on inside the bin. 1" 1/2" hole at the lowest point for air and drainage. I gave up on the rubbermaid....
