Do you have it sitting on the rim of the tank or elevated with the legs?

Thanks for your input!!

I've got mine elevated on the legs. The unit does get warm, nothing out of the ordinary though. Mine has a single pc style cooling fan. I have my heater set to about 76-77 and my temp is usually around 81 degrees. but that's with the lights, two powerheads, an aqua c remora skimmer, and a whisper 30-60 carbon floss filter. so the extra heat from the lights is minimal, but you will get a lot of evap if you don't have a hood, but that's alright, keeps the water fresh
