hooked up a 1/2hp Pacific coast chiller today... Will keep you posted on the results.. the tank was at 81.0 when i hooked it up at 9:00pm at 10:30pm it is already at 80.0 not bad for almost 400g of water!!

Very nice Billy!!! I would love to have a chiller... no room though unless I plumb it in under the house

Gina · 05-28-2006, 07:16 AM

Beautiful CCB! I miss ours.
Would love to have a chiller but, need to get some bills paid around here before we can spend that much money.

billyr98 · 05-28-2006, 10:02 AM

well the chiller has been running for 12 hours now.. and the water is sticking at 77.4... Lets see what happens when those evil Metal Halide bulbs come on..

Woodstock · 05-29-2006, 04:46 AM

How was the temp with the MH on?

billyr98 · 05-29-2006, 09:57 AM

Gina · 05-29-2006, 01:44 PM

Well I am having a tough couple of weeks with fish... Lost the french angel in the 45g tank and now the CopperBand Butteryfly has died in the 210g tank... Oh well I have no ideas here.. Levels are all good...

Gina · 06-02-2006, 07:24 PM

Billy,
Sorry about the fish losses!
I have heard that CBB's can be a hit or miss as far as keeping them alive.
I'm not really sure of the reason why though.

Sorry for your loss Billy

I've had three and will probably never attempt another one. It's just one fish that is very sensitive, doesn't adjust very well to captivity and it's really the exception when they survive long term.

Sorry for your loss Billy
