this isnt an apt complex..
its a duplex.. the landlord lives in the other half. nice guy. He's
putting 2 daughters thru college now, and my rent is a little low for
the area. So its a little more complicated. ;]
I think I may see if he can look-in-the AC, but the less than perfect
insulation is just as much the problem. But you get what you pay for.

After reading everyone's informative posts, I think I'm going to try and
tape some insulating foam around the tank, and then do slow daily water
changes with refridgerated water, or perhaps drilling some hole's in the
fridge and pumping it in and out of a sump tank in there. Its an old
and real beatup fridge, so the landlord may not mind me doing that.

we shall see if I can pull it off before they boil to death.

thanks for the help,
