a/c vent right above tank

I just noticed that my A/c vent is right above my tank. it's like 4 feet over it. and i have a rimless. Could the A/c cause anything bad in my tank?

Might have a little excess evaporation but aside from that it shouldn't be a problem. Just keep the vent and your A/C filter clean.

'main thing to watch out for is servicing the A/C; most guys over here use "flash with bleach" to clean the coils, and you don't want that coming down on the surface! I've got exactly the same situation, so we vacuum the unit regularly, and it never gets sprayed at all.
