Default 1/2 chiller + 1200L/hr

Hi bro,

Newbie here on chiller need help. Can I use 1/2hp chiller attached to 1200L/hr canister filter?

Some bro told me it the flowrate too weak than the water won't come out from chiller to the tank, it will freeze inside chiller...it that true?

my tank is 4ft X 1.5ft X 2ft .....

Any bro out there use Sun Sun Chiller? any comments? which one you prefer "Resun" or "Sun Sun"?

thks! welcome comments and advise....

impossible for the water to freeze as the temperature is not like aroudn 0 degree.water only freezes at 0 degree.

as for 1200L/H it's too slow. u need something like 2000L/H.
resun 650(1/4) is not bad. for your tank size i believe it is sufficient unless u using MH
