    Default Want to buy chiller, big enough for a 200g+

    Hi, I am looking to buy a chiller to run on my 55g. I am going to upgrade tanks within a year or so, to at least a 180 possibly bigger. I dont wat to have to upgrade the chiller then too, thats why I have dual 400w MH on top f the 55g So when I get the bigger tank, only the Bulbs need replaced lol. Let me know what you have and How much!

    travis - sorry to stray off topic a bit here, but if you over size the chiller too much, it will short cycle and it will cause lots of extra wear and tear on the chiller and use a lot more electricity. you may be better off buying a small one sized to your 55 now and then selling it and buying a bigger one when you upgrade..... just food for thought
