The chiller is modified with a standard air conditioner which is 1.5HP, and the copper tube is connected with titanium coil, and add a temperture control module. and that's done.

just connect this titanium coil to the copper tubes.



For many experiences, for this type of chiller is much effient than traditional aquarium chiller.

very nice setup... seems like you have great access to equipment and livestock. Where in China are you located? What direction are you planning on taking with this tank? Do you have your stocking list figured out yet?

Keep us updated on the development on your system, hell of a nice start.

I live in the east part of china, closed to shanghai.

Actually it isn't so easy for me to get equipment and livestock.

I ordered all the equipment on internet. any way they were domestic sellers.

I usually purchase livestock from southern cities by Air, because they're closed to the south sea of China. But domestic livestock were not so good, corals were ugly, so do the fishes.

Normally, Great looking corals were imported from Indonesia and other S.E Aisa countries.

I was a little bit jealous with U.S reef keepers. cause you guys can easily get caribbean rics.


I'll be adding a lot more SPS and LPS corals, and some fishes later.
