Hi I need some advise from any expert out there for the sizing of chiller for 4ft x 2ft x 2ft tank size. I'm looking at Teco TR15 & its spec is 800Litres max. My tank volume is about 560 Litres including the sump 1) Is this good enough for my tank size or I need to get the TR20??? 2) Is Teco Chiller better or JBJ Arctical Chiller better?? Some info on my aquarium. I'm currently on FOWLR. Future my inclde corals in it. The reason I wish to invest in chiller is because my fish cannot last long in my tank. The most is 4 to 5 mths. Initially I tot is because of high nitrate, about 20ppm. thats why I invest in nitrate reactor to bring down the nitrate to the current <5ppm. But I still face the same problem of fish dying after few mths. The rest of my parameters are ok, except the temperature. Current tank temp is 31 to 32 degree C. Initially I never tot temp is the problem because many LFS told me chiller is only needed for corals. If only fish, no need chiller. But After some indebt research, temperature also play a part for FOWLR aquarium. -
