No, I just got a 4" ventilator fan from Radio Shack and set it on top of the
opening at the back of the hood. You may want to make a small bracket and
chimney to hold the fan in place. (You don't want it to fall onto the floor
or into the water.)
The effectiveness of this cooling device will diminish as the humidity
increases, so it is best to keep the tank in a place that is as cool and dry
as possible. The fan should then be able to lower the temperature by
another 5 deg F.
