Anyone with this chiller?

I am going to grab this chiller for my new 34G Solana cube but thought I would ask first if anyone is using one on their nano and how its working out?

How do you have it set up to work with an AIO nano since there is no plumbing?

I am running a 250 halide over this tank and I just want it to be maintenance free with no fans (too noisy), so a chiller is a must.

I have not used this device but the plumbing is one pipe in and one pipe out. You will need an external or submersible pump and plumbing. I would use an Maxijet sumbersible to pull water out of last chamber, push it through the chiller and return it to the overflow chamber.

Ok that is what I thought but wasn't sure.

Will this cause problems with the water level in the last chamber though?

Hmm good question. Probably. You will have to consider that if your pulling water out of a chamber it may run dry and returning water to another may cause it to overfill. Tricky. An ice probe might be a better solution.

Again I'm sure all of these questions have been answered before, try nano-reef.com for chiller solutions.

Can you route the chiller through your sump return? I have mine hooked up to a mag 12. Water goes out of the sump, through the mag 12, through my 1/4hp PCI chiller and into the tank. Works like a charm and I don't have to have a separate pump for each

AIO - No external sump or plumbing.
