Beginner Marine tank ( Need help !! )

[magical26]

bro, based on the picture, get a refractometer instead of the hydrometer for accurate salinity reading. Its the first and most important investment in my opinion.

For $160, I assume you purchased the AL-30 mini chiller?

Your tank is about 16 gallons / 60 liters right? A suitable compressor chiller size would be 1/10HP. Brands like Hailea are quite affordable.

This one. I need to run 1 fan to bring it down to 27

I think this chiller is not powerful enough for 2ft, 80liter tank. think u need to get a bigger 1.

this chiller only support max 10-30liter which is max of around 1ft tank. See the link for the spec.

Oh. Yes. Cos my black clown always twitch on sand bed. Then the sand will float every where.
