Default Advice and recommendations for chiller

hi bros,
I'm thinking of getting a chiller for my 5x2.5x2(ht) ft ios tank - to set the temp at abt 25 degrees.

But I'm totally ignorant abt chillers, so need all your expert advice.

Have a few questions:
1) how big should the chiller size be, 1/2 HP, 1 HP, or?

2) based on (1) what are some brands that are considered fairly reliable, but also in the affordable range?

3) based on (1) and (2), what is the approximate monthly electrical costs? and where is a good place to buy the chiller? C328?

thanks in advance for all your advice.

cheers

Sorry bro this should be posted in tank/ filtration section, IMO hailea is a gd chiller to use, bigger chiller uses higher voltage, hv to depend on the watt ratings, bigger chiller more expensive definitely about 4 digit figure but dun think more than 4k.. I'm not an expert
