ISO chiller for nano tank.
Looking for a chiller for my 20(ish) enclosed nano tank in Greater Van or lower mainland.
Something that won't break the bank or get "one of those" looks from my husband. I am struggling to keep the tank below 85. (Fans on constantly, LED lights turned too low for my corals or off completely) He's the one with the big display, I'm just starting out still learning so I'm not sure specifically what I want. Perhaps thermoelectric. I don't mind drilling the top but I can't drill the tank. Advice always welcome as well. Last edited by Silver; 07-24-2017 at 09:22 PM. Reason: Locarion |

if you want and have the space for it a mini fidge for 50$ and a line of hose for 25$
used pump you could make one to get you through this summer and that wont break the bank too so many vid of ppl doing this too may want to look into this if the chiller is to much but i did see a post for a older chiller some one was selling and it was a fair price i think? |

Yeah I saw the ad but it's in need of repair, if it can be repaired
The other is an interesting idea but no space. I'll see what I can DIY but I was hoping for something affordable and reliable. |

ya i hear ya from the sounds of it it does work just needs some screws to get it back together and for R12/24 fluid thats the same as any AC charge kit you can get at Canadian tire so if it has the nipple on it you may be in luck
and it should like it does frost up so that means it is running at at least 50% efficient, maybe give him a call and get your hand man side on my 2 cents |
