Hi all,

I am new over here, just my own guide on simple way to setup a micro-chiller for not more than 30litr tank.

Picture attached as guideline.

All parts can be buy at Sim Lim Tower.

Items requires as below:

1. Heatsink to release heat (Bigger better)

2. Heatsink as cooling probe (Aluminium needed to be anodised)

3. Peltier (Themoelectric part)

4. Themal paste

5. Screws

6. Isolation rubber mat

7. Power supply unit

8. Fan

what's a peltier? seems like there is a wire attached to it.... what is it for?

is the heat-sink going to touch the salt water? any contamination concern?

as for power consumption, I guess is up to the power adapter used.

bill should be very low.

did yours work? I tried the same thing, it didn't budge my temperature by a degree at all...

I tested with only hand feeling, it cooling.....

U must have fix it wrongly or yr peltier ceramic crack..

Use a battery to test yr peltier working anot... It should be 1 side hot & the other side cold...

fantastic DIY bro!!! wow!!! do tell us more about the results ya!

What i can said is tank volume below 35Ltr should be able to cool it to minimum 25-26oC...

Now i am thinking of what material to use as cooling probe (for marine tank)

1. Aluminium (must anodised)

2. Stainless Steel ( OK anot ?)

3. Tatanium ( Too expensive le)
