Poafamx 16gal Aquarium Chiller 60L Fish Tank Cooler Unit ℉ Quiet for Home Fish Shrimp Breeding Aquaculture

Unit performs well and does the job I bought it to do. Keeps hydroponic water at 69F. using very little electricity as there is no refrigerated chiller involved. Quite is a relative term. When fan is operating it is easily heard. MAJOR issue with me is that I have one question that would have helped me utilize the unit better, but no way ( that I found ) to contact a human to ask them this question :/ UPDATE: The company did reach out and contact me via email. They answered my questions on the unit. Above and beyond that... when the ballast went out after about a month of use, they very promptly (in a day) sent me a replacement at no cost. They were quick to address this issue, and performed true customer service that is above and beyond. I will definitely buy from this company in the future. UPDATE TWO : I have bought another larger chiller unit from this company. Also have had another above and beyond customer service experience with this company, as they sent me a new Peltier cooling block for my smaller unit many months after purchase. Timely service. Excellent customer care. I will continue to buy from this company.

I purchased this on 6/20 and started using it on 6/24. For the last week, it hasn't been cooling my tank. I cleaned it and the tubing and it started cooling the water down a couple degrees for a day or so and then yesterday (9/20) it burnt up. It only lasted 3 months. And if course support window for this product is closed so I can't even report the issue. Waste of money.

Used it for a small 16L tank, 80-85º ambient temp and the chiller had no problem keeping the water around 68º. It did however put out quite a bit of heat from the unit itself, just something to keep in mind. Especially if you keep it under your tank in an enclosed area... It's going to get hot, quick. The pump that comes with it is trash. Switch it out ASAP. Not enough to take off a star since you can just use any pump with it but... Just be aware, it lasted me all of a month.

I am calling tomorrow to find out how to send back. I have an axolotl that we have in a 10 gallon tank. Purchased this and it ended up freezing the tube never anybwater flow after the first 4 days. And couldn't keep it cooler the 74 degrees. Which is damaging for axolotls. Wastes a lot of energy and money. I hope i can return it. Tried defrosting and turning back on 3 separate times. Didn't even get to use it a full week.

I use this on a 20 gallon aquarium, and it does a relatively good job of keeping the water temperature at 65 degrees. Ambient temperature has a huge influence though... If my house goes above 78 degrees the water temperature also goes up rather quickly. This would be far better on a smaller tank, but for the price it does a pretty good job.

They sent the wrong instructions with it. The tubes are flimsy and were bent during packaging. Our other chiller, also a Poafamx, crapped out after 2 years, so we had to use this one. Will replace tubes and thank you YouTube for a set up video.

I keep two axolotls in a 20 gallon tank, and two newts in another. I live on the second floor of my building, so as you can guess, the temperature here fluctuates quite a bit with the seasons, which makes it fairly difficult to keep both tanks at appropriate temperatures. I'm currently using this tank chiller to keep my axolotls within a comfortable temperature of around 64 degrees fahrenheit, and it has not failed me once. For its size, value, and effectiveness, I definitely recommend this cooler over tank fans or frozen water bottles.

Do not get, used it and its ineffective.

Worked in few minutes then fan stopped.
