Hi guys,I bought the RSM250 and love it.I also got a steal on a Aqua Euro USA Aquarium 1/4 HP Chiller.I need a pump that fits in the back.The flow rating for the chiller is 7gpm or around 420 gph.I have a mag 7 which does not fit and I think would flow to fast.Thanks,Bruce

Anyone here that has a chiller on a 250?I need to know what pump they are running..Also I think the mounting setup that comes with RSM is for 1/2" hose? The chiller I bought needs 3/4 hose.. Any ideas?

I can't help much with a 250 question. Have you thought about an external pump? Maybe you can get some type of reducer fittings from 3/4 to 1/2"?
