Hi all.

Get a chiller better. Used with a temp control. When the temp high the chiller will on when temp low it will off.

If u use fan ur water evaporate n u need to auto top up frequently.

You are at the point of no return! Ha.. if electricity is a concern, then this hobby should be for you bro. Will need a lot of electricity to run other stuffs! Wavemaker, skimmer, blah blah blah.. I tried using the fan initially, but given up. The amount of water TOP up Everyday is just ridiculous

Hailea chillers generally worked well for me. Have not used it past 2 year mark though. But while i had it, i didn't have any issues.

Would recommend the HS28a if you getting. Its quieter.
