That's the thing about those chillers...if you look at a good brand like the Aqua Logics or TradeWind chillers you'll see their 1/2 hp rates up too 500 gals. I know a little about these chillers, their not really what they say they are. The 1/2hp compares more like between a 1/4hp and a 1/3hp of...

I agree, I'd go with the PC's....You'll be able to keep just about anything you want under the PC's...no clams cause your tanks a little small for em and no acros.. Oh, and needless to say no anemones

The CCB will be leaving in a few weeks seeing how all the aptasia are gone...
