Great

Works fine, could be better by MATTHEW ROSS

Comments: The product made installation of my JBJ nano chiller on my 6 gal nano cube fairly easy. Unfortunately the hood of the 6 gal nano has to be modified to accommodate the solid hoses running out the back. The tubing was fine and came in appropriate lengths, but it was a little easy to collapse if turning a corner. The only thing I would have liked added would have been hose clamps, I just used plastic zip ties I found in my kitchen, Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Unsatisfactory

Comments: We have a 12 gallon aqua pod aquarium. Even though this chiller is suppose to accomdate it, it doesn't function properly. It was hard to install. We had to drill holes in the plastic in back of the tank. The wells in the back are small and the tubing is cramped. I'm sure in a tank that is chiller friendly it would work just fine. The staff at Marine Depot were nice, however this is not working for us. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

nice try but not adequate by JOHN Pf.

Comments: Needs clamps as the 1/2" clamps on MD are too big (had to use a rubber band to make up the difference). Not sure if the problem is with the clamp or the tubing. I think it might be the tubing, 1/2"OD as opposed to 1/2"ID. No adjustable head for return and no strainers for protecting the inlet. Tubing is too soft and collapses a bit when trying to route it, which reduces effective water flow. Also smells like vinyl and if you can smell it then the chemicals are leaching into the water. Vinyl/PVC is very toxic. I'm replacing it with clear tubing (still vinyl but hopefully a better quality) and a flexible Loc-line outlet. We'll see if that works. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: Hooked this up to my Mini Arctica chiller. I like the smoke color of the hoses and the length was appropriate. It would be better with two u-tubes rather than an s-tube, but otherwise no problems Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
