Im going to go through my first summer with my tank in my apartement and in quebec with high humidity, the temperture can reach 35-40 degree and i dont have air conditioner in my apartement. The temperature in my apartment can reach 30 degrees celcius. Can my tank suffer from over heating? Thanks in advance
 
If I'm not mistaken, that's 85 or so degrees Fahrenheit, I'd be very nervous about that temp. I get worried if mine hits 81. You would do well to get a chiller, preferably before the temp spikes on you. What kind of tank is it by the way?

Fish won't be as negatively impacted as corals. Get a chiller ASAP. You will start loosing corals at that temp. I had the same issue last year and got a chiller. I lost a few corals and some are still recovering.
