Chiller is a lifesaver
Had reef aquariums 20 years ago and decided I wanted a nano tank so I bought a used JBJ 28 nanocube. Didn’t think with LED lights heat would be an issue but after setup, the tank stayed around 88 degrees Fahrenheit. Although I wasn’t planning on spending the money on a chiller, this thing has been a lifesaver. It keeps the temperature within one degree up or down of what you set, but most of the time it’s within a half degree. Instead of buying their kit which should come with the product, I went to the hardware store and bought 10’ of 5/8” tubing and cut it in half. They fit on the chiller, pump, and outlet back into the aquarium fine. I did use big zip ties to make sure there were tight connections. Make sure you get a backup fuse. Mine hasn’t gone out because I just set it up but you don’t want to be scrambling for one if it blows on you.

CCCCOOOOOL !!
Chiller is powering a 20-gal... Very quiet and brought the temp down from 84 to 78 in about 30-minutes. It's digital controller is OK.... and has built in, 3-min time-delay for compressor protection. Thanks, Saltwater Aquarium !! 'Preciate the deal as well......

Does a great job
I have hooked this up for a couple of days now. The unit works really well to control the temperature in my tank, keeping it at 78 degrees even when the ambient is higher. I have 40 Gal (including sump volume) so I am at the upper limit for the recommendation. Feeding with an MJ1200. What impresses me most is how quiet this unit is. The other chiller on my other tank is so much louder. I needed to check the LED and feel with my hand to confirm this JBJ unit was actually in the chilling cycle.

THE BEST CHILLER ON THE MARKET
I purchased this chiller after much research on chillers. I purchased it because of the reputation of this company and the high review ratings. It was safely packed for transit and delivered within a few days. It was very easy to set up and is quite well constructed. It is whisper quiet and keeps chills quickly. I like the led light that is always just one degree one way or the other and it self adjusts immediately. It is not terribly big and actually has an attractive casing. I have a 20 gallon tank and I keep an axolotyl SUPER HAPPY with the constant 62 degrees this chiller provides. HIGHYLY RECOMMEND the investment.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT THAT EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS!
I got the 1/15 chiller for my reef tank about one month ago and have been incredibly happy with it! It is very quiet, compact and has a sturdy design. I keep it in my living room, where my tank is, and don't even notice it's running.<br>My aquarium has about 55 gallons of water volume and the chiller has so far been able to pull down the temp 10 degrees from the ambient are temperature. It says it's rated for up to 40 gallons but from my experience it can handle more without issue.<br>Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a chiller capable of handling 60 gallons or less.
