Well, I'm on the opposite coast, hence the caribbean tank. This would definitely be a challenge for me. Like I have time for another tank. I'm an idiot for even considering it.

waldoz Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Actually I think they are less work and since everything in the cycle moves so slow. I did not realize he was back up and running, very cool though. Quote Link to comment

Pjanssen Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I'm not finding any resources for cold water species. Live Aquaria has a catalina goby listed, but not available. Anyone know of any resources for cold water livestock. Quote Link to comment

On 2/5/2020 at 10:24 AM, Christopher Marks said: On the subject of cooling, I am inclined to disallow closed loop chillers for the sake of all-in-one simplicity, but I am open to arguments. I don’t want tanks to suffer in the summer over temperature control, we all live in different climates after all. Probe based chillers are an option, but I know they have their limits. Thoughts? I believe no further arguments were made for or against. Chris, @Pjanssen is looking into a coldwater tank. Did you have a ruling on chillers? 👮♀️ 2 Quote Link to comment
ECLS Reefer Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I keep my house on “meat locker” with the AC so a chiller has never been necessary 😉 3 Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 IceProbes are allowed, plumbed chillers not so much. For a small tank, IceProbes should be enough. 2 Quote Link to comment

I dont think CM ever said no............I voted yes as I was thinking cold water.............and yes a ice probe should work for a small tank...........I was looking at a AIO cube and thing it totaled 8 gallons or so.......... 1 Quote Link to comment

devaji108 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I also vote yes for chillers for cold water tanks. does my vote even count tho?? Quote Link to comment
devaji108 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 good news! I decided on my tank for the challenge. now to convince the GF we need a 3rd tank in the house until we move then I can put it in the basement fish room/lab. I was going crazy back in forth trying to decide...haha at least that is done, now to finalize the theme... more to come don't want to count my fish eggs before there hatched.. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
