For the time being, yes. Although looking around, that 180 is a really strong pump when putting a little back pressure on it. It performs close to the 400 at 1/2 the power. Don't know what to do now..

Well if it's working why change it? Is it because you want to put the loop back in? What turnover rate does the instructions say to have?

I want to get my flow back that was lost with the chiller in the loop. I ordered a Rio/600 today, so if that's too much, at least I can back it off a tad. Not happy about the extra heat, but now I have a way to get it compensate.

IRAF: I'm running the Nano Chiller on my 12 with the twin CF lamps. For the 1st time today I can run with the lamps on, lid closed, room A/C off, Room approaching 88 quickly, and the tank is a rock solid 78.5 !
Typically I run the A/C to keep the room at 80, lid open, lamps on short cycle, and the peltier chiller attached to the back of the tank running to keep it around 80. This is way more better.

Gotta love it!
