Is the tank confined to a specific room in the house? If so, a portable AC unit for the room might make more sense since the chiller will just be expelling that heat into the room, to be re-absorbed by the water, rinse repeat.

We both have mixing stations in the garage in Texas. That’s why we need the chillers. I use the house A/C to keep the tanks cool!

Well I should have clued in on the temp, but re-reading the precursors to my post and.. ;Facepalm

That's one quality mixing station though, love those sideways stacking vessels.

Been planning my wiring. I have 21 things to plug in. (Really hope I’m not missing anything!) I have 2 EB832 for a total of 16 plugs.

Think I’m going to use splitters on the following items:

2 Kessil 360s to one plug
2 MP40s to one plug
2 MP10s to one plug
2 stand leds to one plug
And plug my router into the wall.
That will give me 16 sockets needed!

I’ve been running two MP10s off one plug for quite a while. No issues doing that with the MP40s?

Other plugs needed:

AP700
Retro T5 set
Korallin Reactor
2 Vectra M1s
Nyos Skimmer
Aquamaxx Reactor
2 heaters
Fuge light
2 battery backups

Should work out...

Really going well. Can’t wait to see this come together.

Q: why is your sump tray sticking out ?

Couple of reasons: I have a place for my Reactor and something else to add back there. Also the ghost overflow and plumbing will be over the tray in case there is a leak there it will hit my sensor. And I wanted a tad bit water holding volume if there is a leak! Lol

At least that’s the plan...we all know how that goes!
