Features

  • High-Efficiency 79-Gallon Cooling: Indoor tanks need heat relief to protect aquatic life. Our 1/3 HP chiller drops indoor water temps by 8-15F. Keep volume under 63 gallons in hot summer to secure perfect hydroponic and axolotl habitats.
  • Variable Frequency Saving: Constant cooling often causes high electric bills. This chiller uses a variable frequency compressor that automatically adapts its operation, cutting energy use by 30 percent for highly cost-effective daily operation.
  • Pure Titanium Evaporator: Marine environments require rust-proof parts to protect sensitive corals. Designed with a pure titanium evaporator and stainless steel housing, it resists saltwater corrosion for safe, long-lasting heat transfer.
  • Precise PID Control and Low Noise: Living spaces demand quiet appliances while tanks need thermal stability. A PID algorithm keeps temps within 2F. Dual silent fans ensure rapid heat dissipation for continuous, quiet indoor operation.
  • Complete Kit and Smart Protection: Aquarists need easy setup and safe unattended operation. The set includes an 800 L/H water pump and secure pipe clamps. Over-current shutdown and power-off memory save settings and protect the system during outages.

  • Better than I’d hoped
Size: 160L
I have a large shrimp tank that was fetter hot in the summer. I wanted something to keep the shrimpers cool and happy. Bought this on a lightning sale and haven’t looked back. Quick version: keeps a thirty-gallon tank cool and consistent at 68-73 degrees, no problem in an 80-degree room. Fan noise is a thing. It isn’t silent. The noise level is about the same as a small window air conditioner. Doesn’t bother me, but a thing to consider. Only makes noise when the fans are on. In my case it pops on about every 30 min for about two minutes. The pics are misleading. The tubing is 1/2 tubing with a pretty powerful power head that pushes water through the system constantly. This creates a powerful outflow. In a 20-50 gallon tank, this will create a whirlpool unless you deflect the outflow stream. I wrapped some course filter material around the outflow and attached it with zip ties, creating a soft dispersed current perfect for the shrimps. The power jet has large open intake vents, anything smaller than a platy is going to get diced and sliced. Guppies, endlers, shrimps, etc will need protection from the suction of death. I used coarse filter material attached with zip ties to cover the vents, which keeps small critters safe while not hurting the flow. When the unit pops on there is a small joint or movement to the unit, it the unit is on the same surface as the aquarium, it may startle or stress out your critters. The unit does not come with suction cups to hold the tubing in place. Trust me, you’ll want suction cups to hold the tubing. The power head will push a lot of water consistently through the tubes. These are thick unwieldy tubes. You can wreck your flooring in a matter of seconds if the outage tube wiggles free of the aquarium. Some said theirs didn’t ship with instructions. Mine came with a guide for setup and settings. Setting the unit temp is pretty easy, but not exactly intuitive. A benefit of this unit is an internal battery that keeps your settings even if the power goes out, worth the extra money! All in all, great product. My shrimps are happy and cool. Has been running for two months without issue. Update: The unit has been working extremely well for the past 4 months. In the summer the unit pops on about every 20 min, I was worried this would overwork the unit, but so far no problems. Has been keeping my 40-gallon tanks at a perfect 73.5 all through the summer. Overall very happy with the unit. As mentioned above, it isn't silent, so take that into consideration. Also, it will heat up a small room....so your fish may be nice and chilly, but the heat removed from the aquarium dispersed from the output fans will heat up a small room. ... show more

  • Great while it lasted..
Size: 160L
I’ve had this aquarium tank chiller for about five years, and for the first four it was absolutely solid. It kept my axolotl’s water at a perfect, stable temperature and honestly made tank maintenance so much easier. But last year things took a turn, the tank suddenly became foggy and sweaty, and the water dropped way too cold for my axolotl’s comfort. I took the whole system apart, cleaned the tubing and the inside of the chiller, and thankfully it started working again. Unfortunately, the same issue came back this year, and this time cleaning didn’t save it. It officially stopped working altogether. I’ve noticed other reviewers reporting the exact same problem, so definitely keep that in mind before buying. When it works, it works really well, but once this issue starts, it seems to be the beginning of the end. ... show more

  • Great chiller for a great price...don't let the negative reviews dissuade you!
Size: 160L
I see a lot of reviews here from unhappy customers complaining about this chiller overloading their electrical circuits. They seem not to realize that the maximum current rating is listed right here on the product listing, and if they can't figure out how not to overload a circuit, that isn't a defect in this product, nor is it the company's fault. Receiving 1-star ratings due to user error is ridiculous. Pros: I bought the 160-L version, and I think it's fantastic. I grow cannabis hydroponically (specifically using Deep Water Culture), where the water reservoir needs to stay below ~72 degrees Fahrenheit to keep the root zone free of harmful bacteria. My plants were nearly killed by root rot more than once, but since adding this chiller to my system I haven't had any problems. It keeps the ~80-L reservoir as cold as I'd like—I keep it set to 13.5 degrees Celsius (56.3 degrees Fahrenheit), which usually results in a temperature reading of ~60 degrees Fahrenheit at the root zone. This is within the advertised uncertainty when also factoring in the First Law of Thermodynamics (the chiller intake and return are at the bottom of the reservoir, where the temperature is the lowest). For this reason, you should always measure the actual temperature of the water depending on the location of the intake and return are, but in general this chiller does exactly what you ask. The construction is solid, and the parts most people will need come with the purchase, including a hose, pipe fittings, o-rings, a submersible pump, etc. Personally, I wanted maximum flow through the largest possible cross-section, and it was fairly simple to remove the 3/8" fittings and replace them with 1/2" fittings (and matching tubing) that don't restrict flow at all. I imagine that full cooling may take even less time than the advertised cooling curves if you also choose to upgrade to 1/2". I also bought a separate pump to use inline rather than the less powerful submersible pump included, but I did test the included pump and it worked just fine. When trying to force less pliable tubing onto the new fittings I ended up hearing a super loud, metallic bang of internal parts, which resulted in an annoying clicking noise for the next few days. Eventually the noise went away, which seems to me to be a reflection of the resilience of this chiller. Customer service was top notch as well. They kept me appraised of every step of the (shorter than expected) overseas shipping journey, from confirmation of the regional electrical specifications to questions about changing the size of the pipe fittings. The representatives of the company were thoughtful, sincere, and always there to answer your questions or address any problems. Cons: Admittedly, the complaints about the instructions being useless are valid; however, there are also clear instructions on this product page. It's also slightly inconvenient to convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit, but complaining about that is incredibly lazy. You only need to do the conversion once, provided you aren't constantly changing the desired temperature. The message on the screen is written only with Chinese characters, but honestly it hardly matters what it says given the simplicity of operation, the small number of buttons to press, and the brief amount of time the message is shown when setting the desired temperature. --- My chiller has been running nonstop for over a month now, and it's my opinion that you should look no further to get a quality chiller for a bargain. While it isn't perfect, I think it's worth 5/5 stars nonetheless. ... show more

  • DO NOT BUY THIS!!
Size: 300L
ETA: I was supposedly getting help from Amazon, who told me to re-purchase the item and then they would refund that once it arrived. I was assured that there was a note in my file explaining that I was to get a refund for the $450 purchase. However, when I reached out, they rescinded that offer and said they won't be refunding me. I just spent ANOTHER $450 on this chiller, and now I have to return it and wait weeks to get THAT refund from Amazon. In other words, once you're out of the basic Amazon return window, even if it is a very expensive product that should withstand much more than a year of basic use, they will NOT help you! So, again, DO NOT BUY THIS!! Honestly, with Amazon's awful response, I highly recommend going to the actual manufacturer of a better brand instead of purchasing through Amazon. It's what I plan to do. This will work... for a while. Then it stops working, leaving your animals stressed and at risk of death!! At one point, about 7 months into owning this chiller, it suddenly dropped from 62 degrees (F) all the way down to 44!!! My poor axolotls were frozen, and I was afraid they wouldn't make it. Thankfully they did. Now, just as I've hit the one year mark (conveniently where their warranty ceases), the chiller has stopped working two additional times. It has the lights on and is reading 63 degrees, but it is 74 degrees in the tank! It did this a week and a half ago, and I sat down and re-calibrated the machine, got it chilling again, and now it's back to being broken. For over $400, this should NOT be breaking less than a year of use!!! Absolutely a waste of money, and now I can't even find any information on customer service so I can share these issues. This was for my axolotls in my classroom, so guess what teacher now has to drop hundreds of additional dollars on ANOTHER chiller out of pocket because this company couldn't be bothered to make a quality item. ... show more

  • Read this for assembly and setup instructions!!
Size: 160L
This is a long review, but I want it to be as informative as possible. I spent a LOT of time researching and comparing aquarium chillers, and I couldn't find much online about this product. Purchased to keep my Axolotl cool during the New England spring/summer. I have literally only had this chiller running for 10 minutes and will update my review once I've had some time to see it in use, HOWEVER. I spent embarrassingly too long trying to figure out how to get this thing properly set, so I'm posting exactly what needs to be done during the initial setup to hopefully save someone else some time that I lost. I'll give my initial impressions as well. PROS: -Quiet; Sounds like a mini fridge or quiet bathroom fan while it's running. -Easy to assemble and comes with everything I need to get it started. Other chillers I looked at were more expensive and required separate purchases (pump, hoses) to install. -Packaged very carefully and had no issues with broken/faulty parts. CONS: -As others have mentioned, the instruction manual is garbage. The Amazon product page is more helpful than the manual. -No other cons yet, will add more if I need to later on. To assemble: 1. After unboxing everything, cut the included hose to length/in half for the input and output hoses. 2. Attach one end of one hose to the the included submersible pump, and suction cup to the inside aquarium wall. I attached it to the wall as high up as I could while still fully under water, because I figured that the warm water rises to the top. DO NOT PLUG IN YET. 3. Attach the other end of the pump's hose to either of the ports on the top of the chiller, as well as one of the ends of the second hose you cut, to the second port. The instruction manual does cover this part well so follow that with a screwdriver in hand. 4. Place the second hose's end in the tank for the cool water outlet. 5. Plug in the pump to ensure that the hose connections on the top of the chiller don't leak. If they do leak, you may need to hand tighten the metal hose clamps further with your screwdriver. 6. After ensuring that there are no leaks, attach the chiller cord and power it on, flipping the red switch on the back if the screen doesn't turn on. Setting the temperature: 1. Check the temperature in your tank with a separate thermometer and convert to celsius if needed. 2. Ensuring that the current water temp matches the reading on the chiller: If the temperature listed on the screen is off from the actual water temperature, press and hold the SET button until the screen shows F1. Press the up arrow to show F2, then SET once more to select. Adjust that number to the number of degrees (in celsius) that the chiller is off by. Mine was off by 1.5c. Press RET to save. 3. Set desired water temperature: Press SET once without holding, to set your desired water temperature. For my Axolotl, I set it to 17c (62.6f). Press RET to save. 4. Last step. Set the "kick-on" temperature: Press and hold SET again to show F1 on the screen. Release and press SET again to select. The number you're adjusting here is how many degrees above your desired temperature that you would like the chiller to turn back on. Press RET to save. I set mine to 1.0, which means once the temperature rises 1 degree celsius above my desired temperature, the chiller will turn back on to cool it back down. (For me, setting mine to 17 celsius with a 1 degree kick-on, the chiller will cool the water to 62.6f and turn off, but if the water rises above 64.4f it'll kick back on to cool it back down.) You can set this margin as high or low as you'd like, from what I've seen. In the time it took me to write this post, about 40 minutes, my 20 gallon tank has lowered from 72f to 65f. I'm very pleased with this chiller so far! ... show more

This was easy to set up and worked wonderfully for about 3 1/2 years. Then I woke up one morning to my tank a chilly 39°F. My axolotls survived but the chiller is done.
