RSM 250 questions on lighting (AI Sol) & Chiller (1/10hp AquaEuro USA)

[zisaacson]

Hey everyone,

I ended up purchasing a RSM250 off of a friend who modified with AI SOL Blue lights. Any suggestions on what I should keep the settings at? They are obviously quite bright and I don't want to overdose the fish.

I have also been trying to hook up a 1/10hp AquaEuro USA chiller but finding correct converters has been a pain in the butt. Is there a good place to buy these online as Home Depot did not have them. Or suggestions on better way to hook up a chiller?

It is a reef tank, been established for almost 2 years but the tank has never really flourished. The temp has always been the issue I assume as it will reach upwards of 85-86 degrees in the summer.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Welcome to RS! With those temps it is no wonder it didn't do well, a chiller seems to be needed.
