Need some help, maybe pics on Chiller for 70 Gallon.

[Wind]

Hi,

I am new to the chiller world, but my tank has been extremely hot and it has in deed affected my fish tank. I would love to get a chiller that can handle my 70 gallon and possibly bigger tank ratings, for future usages.

I'm thinking of an 'in line' chiller. Do I basically hook up like a magdrive and pump water through the chiller? I have a cube tank, and no sump.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks

This a little large, but would give you room to grow into.

Do I basically hook up like a magdrive and pump water through the chiller? - Yes although there are various options and methods which depend on your system. Do you want to use a pump solely for your chiller or do you want to tie it into your skimmer loop? I see you do not have a sump, what type of skimmer do you have and how is it plumbed?
