Pump for hailea 90a chiller

[hooey]

Hi Guys, I'm starting out with my tank, would like to ask people here who has the hailea 90a chiller, which pump are you using with it? Thanks

I'm running a HS90A with a 3000L/H pump if the flow rate is something you are asking.

IMO, a 2000L/H is good enough which is not too fast and allow enough time to get the water chilled properly.

For brand it depend on your budget, but preferably a better and reliable brand since chilling is one of the most important piece of puzzle in reefing.

Thanks Tom,I was recommended with the eheim 1260 with this chiller but will it be overkill? As I have a 1262 already running as my return, there isnt much space left in my sump, I guess settle with a eheim compact pump that does 2000l/h.

Ya. Eheim compact will be a good choice for space saving and still reliable pump.

1260 is overkill.

Believe someone is selling on the pasar malam. See if you can strike a deal with him.
