Hi all! Last summer I found out that temps in my area definetly had a negative impact on my tank, so....I've decided to buy myself a Chiller as a X-Mas present!

I was wondering what's the best option considering I have a 12 gal. AP?
Thanks!

I've narrowed my options to:
1. JBJ Nano Arctica: 1/20 HP - 110 to 160 gph
2. CurrentUSA Prime Nano: 1/15 HP - 100 to 350 gph
Any thoughts or recommendations on these 2 options?

get the jbj miniarctica...
its rated for higher just incase you want to upgrade.
it's a 1/15.. make sure you fill out the warraty card just in case.. mine never broke though I've used it for over a year..
the easy plumbing kit is a good idea too...
Trim the tubes as short as possible to minimize head loss on the pump... and make sure you upgrade the return pump on your tank and run the chiller between return and outflow.
