Finally surrender myself to constant topping up of water and constantly monitoring the water temp cooled by an A/C fan. I got myself a brand new 1/3 hp chiller.

Can advice what is the standard temp setting to use these days? My chiller control temp in 0.5 difference. Thanks.

Actually I con-ed my spouse saying coral all melting, that's why I got a chiller now. Ha ha

Wow, this is finally the "Return of Hon" we are all waiting for. ;)

Tank is from CR Aquarium. Using 2x AI Vega for lighting. Skimmer is a skimz sm201 in sump model.

Does CR Aquarium help you with the design like calculating the overflow and sump design? :) Don't mind PM me how much? Thanks.

Have lost a few coral due to high temp of 32 deg. Decided to install a 1/3 hp Arctica chiller, hope coral will be happier. Update some pics of tank as of today.

how did your temperature shoot up to 32 degrees? Wasn't the chiller already set up some time back?

I installed my chiller less than 2 weeks ago. Before putting the chiller online, water temp rose to 32 deg for the past few days and was at 31 most of the days. SPS start to stn from bottom up. Hammer coral get brown jelly and melted away. Even a zoas colony start to close and die off. After much thought, for the health of the coral in the long run, I bought the chiller.

Got my new toy today. It's a AI Director. Now I can control my 2 vega light with different light intensity. But there aren't 20 channel per light set, it only does per colour adjustment.
