SRC Member boxfish Posted May 18, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hi, My current tank is about 120L and am planning to upgrade to about 250L. If I plan to get Daeil chiller, is 1/10 HP for 300L sufficient? will I expect frequent kick in? I hope to know the minimum size I require for decent performance. I do understand the bigger the better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do understand the bigger the better Hi boxfish, The size of chiller is not totally depend on the Gallon/litre itself ! You must consider the no. of pumps used, lighting heat....etc. Anyway, you can check the size of the chiller for your needs from Arctica website! Arctica Cheers.

SRC Member May&Bruce Posted May 31, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted May 31, 2006 1/10 HP will be far too small. More likely 1/4 HP would be more suitable.....but check the formual at the Artica site.
