    I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.

    I'll third (or whatever) the controller. I set the heater control higher than I would want it and connect it to the controller and then use a fan and AC to cool the tank. The controller was one of the best $100 I have spent. It does mean that I have to adjust the heater if I should ever use it in a standalone mode. I have a half a degree spread between the cool setting for the fan and the setting for the heater to keep them from thrashing.
