Freeze some bottles of water, and if it happens again float the the bottles in the tank to cool it down.

You can also try blowing a fan across the surface of the tank.

Have a fan blow over the top of the tank to help with evaporative cooling. Top off with freshwater. An aquarium chiller is expensive to buy and run but they can be worth it.
