SRC Member Maxstar81 Posted November 11, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted November 11, 2005 I have a 1.5ft tank and a 2ft tank. Everybody tells me its a waste of $$$ to invest in a chiller for the tank. Anyway, resun cl280 about how much ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member Alvin Tan Posted November 11, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted November 11, 2005 the minimum will be a CL 280 which is 1/10 HP...more den enuff for a 1.5ft tank.. price ranging from 320-380...price varies on different LFS.. or u can look arnd at the pasar malam sell of section..reefers may sell their chiller...some are selling below 200 for a CL 650(which can be use for further upgrade ) ps: CL 650 is 1/4 HP...can be use to fire up a 4ft tank in case of further upgrading of ur tank...

SRC Member rapalla Posted November 13, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted November 13, 2005 How about getting a PC fan... can maintain constant 28deg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeRoCoOl Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 It depends on wat temperature you looking at. For small thank CL 280 is more than enough, but not sure if you're running a 250W MH on it... Or a teco micro?? Gona be $$ though. Else for FL/ PL lightings, a few DIY PC fans and an automated topup for water evaporation should be more than sufficient. Cheapest option and realistic since I doubt u will be aiming for anything below 26 degrees... are you Else U can always get an ice probe or 2 to fit in yr tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member gift05 Posted November 13, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted November 13, 2005 http://www.coolworksinc.com/iceprobe_aquarium_chiller.htm its this lil device that sticks its titanium head into the sump via a drilled hole, and chills the water. the same stuff you find inside water cooler fountains.
