Pipe Fittings for Chiller

[Carnaval]

Hi bros, I figured since most of you are using overflow systems you could help me in solving my problem. I bought a chiller a few days back from my friend for my 3x2x2 tank. It came with pipes for the inflow and outflow. However, the pipes are too big to fit the pipes that I'm currently using for my filtration system. Is there any way to solve this problem? Are there some kinds of pipe fittings that allow me to connect a smaller pipe to a larger pipe?

I'm running an Eheim 2028 but the flowrate not strong enough. I intend to use a 1260 to power it. But before I buy the pump I need some advice from the more experienced brothers here...

I want to hook it up this way:

Tank -> Pump -> Filter -> Chiller -> UV

The 2028 will be off. Everything will depend on the 1260.

hi bro,

My advise is to have both filter and pump on.

tank >>pump >>chiller>>tank for the new added pump Ehiem 1260

tank>>filter>>UV>> tank for the exisitng filter Eheim 2028

Hi bro,

You can go to hardware shop and ask for reducer to connect the two set of pipes. It comes with various sizes but you have to tell them that it is to reduce from what size to what size.
