It looks like I may have to purchase a chiller for my aquarium. I ran my Coralife Aqualight Pro lights today for 12 hours, and the temperature climbed to 84 degrees. I have a clip on fan blowing in the sump, and of course, the light fixture comes with 2 fans, but they are not cooling things adequately. Unless someone has a suggestion that will solve my heat problem, it looks like I will have to purchase a chiller. Does anyone have any chiller recommendations that will not bankrupt me? Also, any pros and cons with regards to inline models versus drop-in models? Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
hard to bet the pacific coast line of chillers. I have never had a complaint on one yet. Plus the factory stands behind there stuff real well! A 1/10 hp model is $339 and the mag 7 to run it is under $60. The drop in models can get coil freeze so i do not recomend them or sell them to any one.
