Dazeman1 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 So I have a reef setup in biocube 8 that is going extremely well. With summer coming up, my house gets extremely hot, probably into the mind 90s (well the upstairs where my tank is). I was looking into getting a nano chiller for the tank does anyone have an good recommendations? I'd rather pay less, but don't want to get a cheap one that doesn't work. Also keep in mind its a biocube so there is no hang on filters. Link to comment
burnofvengeance Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 A fan blowing across the top of the water might keep your temps in check. I'd try that before I invested in a chiller. It worked for my 24 NC last summer. Edit* Just like your tank, my house get's really hot and my tank is upstairs. Link to comment
EasyEd77 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I had a heat issue with my Bicube 14 and fixed it by building an external chiller with the ice probe and 2 1/2" pvc pipe fittings. The total cost of the project is around $150. The way I did it it looks better than the example in the link below because I did not use the large toilet flange he did. I was able to mount it to the biocube stand in the back. You can not even tell it is there. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?...amp;hl=iceprobe Link to comment
