Chiller size question

Jyetman · 04/09/2014, 11:01 PM

I have a JBJ 1/3 Chiller I bought used for my 80 gallon reef. It drops the temp by two degrees in 28 minutes is this too fast? I've had the chiller for awhile now and started using it again. Can I use this big of a chiller on a 80 gallon tank?

You can use it, no problem.

It is fine. If you are really worried about it, have it come on at 1 degree instead of 2.
