I have a 40 gallon reef tank, with a wet dry and a hang on refugium.
I live in Florida, and in the summer, it is hard for me to keep the tanks below 82 F . I tried fans, and ice packs in the sump.
I have finally understood it is in the best interests of the tank occupants to purchase a chiller (and controller). I was hoping you all could share your experiences with me and give me advice on what to look for - features.
possible product brands/models would be nice, but only if you list the features that made you happy/mad.
I would like to avoid drilling, but if I had to, I assume the sump is the place to do it?
I would also like to do it at a reasonable cost (note, I didn't say cheapest)
thanks in advance
