I'm running the chiller on a 40 gallon aquarium. It is set for 59°F. The flow rate is 383 gph. There are no obstructions. The ambient temperature is 84.2°F. The chiller reads 85.8°F and is hot to the touch.

Any ideas?

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

  • Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

    Votes: 31 64.6%

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 5 10.4%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 2 4.2%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

    Votes: 8 16.7%

  • I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

    Votes: 1 2.1%

  • Well...it's complicated... (answer in the comments)
