JBJ Mini-Arctica Chiller DBI-050 1/15hp

anyone here using these?

I setup a new cube this weekend, and w/o the lights on it's allready in the 80s. so, a chillin I will go. just wondered if anyone had one yet, and what they thought.


mainly concerned w/

what size pump should I use on it? (can't find that info on jbj's site)

How loud does it sound (supposed to be 33 db's, which is equivalent, to a whisper)

What size tank is it going on? I use the current 1/15th hp chiller on my 20L (40 gal system). In the summertime on warmer days (85+) my chiller would stay on the entire day and most of the night and my water temps would get up there in the daytime. I would go with a 1/10hp depending on your tank size and ambient temp.
