  1. comycus you may wanna try an ext temp controller for better result set the temp 27 and cut in at 29 that will be better for you best is to connect the pump together as well for longer kick in period
  2. ya true as the smaller the tank the temp will rise fast as what u said bad ventilation ''binosage'' comycus what is the gallon of your tank and how many pump u use?? u may try to set the temp to different by 1.5 to cut in if your target is to get a result of 27 means max 28.5 that will take longer for the chiller to cut in another thing is that condition of ur chiller example is the fan still fast enough to cool down the condenssor or is the condenssor dirty even the frt ventilation of the chiller is it block with thing??/
  3. by the way what chiller you using teco got a dozen of model care to share
  4. Sound funny u mean you set the temp to kick in after increase of temp by 0.5 what is the lowest temp u set to cut off
  5. the look will be fine. indeed it will do some goods for it which i thought before also but after considering of the flow of water back to the sump or tank the different is very minimun so if your pipe to the chiller back to your tank is not as long as 6-10 meter away there's isn't a need for that. same goes to car or house A/C you need a wide hose/pipe for your high pressure gas to pump to the valve and then it'll generate into vapor in a faster speed but ofcourse the shorter the pipe the faster the cooling
  6. I don't have A/C in my living room hee hee For what i've discover that a flow of 1700-2200l pump is a idea one after i've tested alot of pump even a 3000l and for most of us on the chiller and the pump very constantly as this will also generate heat so what i do is i use timer to on the pump and chiller together. As i monitor the temp closely for almost 2 shaight month to know the raise of the temp and set the timer accordingly that the trick done a research on the net even for coral (except sps) reef tank also can go up to a temp of 29 so don't worry of at a temp of 28.5 as for the lighting if you only uses T5 4 tube try just on it at the evening time after 4-5pm at a six hr duration only this also will help to prevent at least 0.5 of temp raise the timer i set at 8am to 9pm secondly at 3pm-4pm then there after 9.30pm to 10.30pm each time when it on the temp at most will be 28.8 for sure i have set the chiller to cut off at 27 one more thing my 3ft have no bedding so sometime it took longer to cool down compare to previously i have sand bedding my 4ft have a 3inch bedding so the effect will be better as sand bedding will have a cooling level example hot air raises cool air drop
  7. I GOT two tank for the three feet it cool down by teco ra680 from 28.7 to 27 in an hr time as for my 4ft it cool down by a DIY chiller from hendry(marineLife) took 37min to cool down from 28.5 to 27 both only cut in three time a day so my electricity bills just increase about $25 including water change
  8. Wow indeed it really look nice from outlook smart and gramma see what his going for cute small sport or sporty with smart look. if wanna have a cheap and power sport look flat bravo also not bad
