I have a 10 gal tank (will be getting a 20 later) and only need to cool the water by 10 degrees. Will adjusting the temp settings allow for this?

Yes, it might take some adjusting but you can easily control the temp of your tank with this device. Enjoy!

I just bought this and it's working AWESOME on a 9gal tank I have. It's very easy to adjust using the up and down arrows on the front. You shouldn't have any problems.
268687
Yes. Though it all depends on your ambient room temperature. I had a 29 gal Puget Sound aquarium and was able to maintain a 55 deg temp at a 75deg room temp.

Yes, easily. Can drop temp in 40 gal by 10 degrees, so 10-20 gal res will be no problem.

I have a 25 gallon tank which stays cool at 67 degrees 7 days a week. I have gotten the temp to stay as low as 64 degrees. Without knowing what you want the 10 degree drop to be, I wails say it's a safe bet that you can drop the degrees to your desired temp. Hope this helped you.

I chill 50 gallons and have no problem from before chiller was 79 degrees with chiller 68 degrees the control seems to work great just set and foget it

No. If you want temp in your tank to be higher than room temp, use an additional heater.

We have a 50 gallon tank and it keeps the water for my very large red ear red slider a perfect 68 degrees. I image it might if you're not too fussy about the temperature being super warm.

no not adjustable. Its cool but I couldn't give you a specific temp sorry. I'd say its a bit less cool than of water in a fridge for a couple hours. The hot water doesn't always come out hot immediately. Its great for its price in my opinion.

It'll run a bit hotter than if you had standard coolant. 10F is common. But it is no big deal as your engine can handle running much hotter. It is the water based coolant that cannot handle running much hotter.I run Evan's in my aircraft and my coolant temps run 200-220F. Before it ran 190-205.

I've used the 5L for showers without any problems. I don't feel that the 10L is necessary. AS I stated in my review the temp is tough to regulate but the water never gets cold. Use lowest water setting and adjust the temp as needed. That seems to work the best. Enjoy.

It'll depend on how many gallons of water it needs to heat. Mine heats a full 3 gallon tank to about 79 degrees. If you add on galloms, it will slowly decrease in temperature. More gallons usually means less heat with these unadjustable heaters. You could get a thermometer and use the heater for a few days to see if the temperature keeps consant.

I use an Aqueon 10 w. It isn't adjustable but has kept the water at 82. I unplugged it when the weather got warmer.

Don't think so, the temperature of the water on the input side may determine the output temp. My water is around 55 degrees and i have seem temps close to 140 but thats the highest

I did not know this till now. Anyway, my tank is 10 gals too. The heater is totally inside the tank but it's not always fully submersed, it's about 1" away from the water most of the time but so far, it works great.

Hi Doug, yes it can be set to 10 degrees. Mine goes from zero to 40 degrees. I'm 100% happy with mine. Eric

I can only say that I have this in a 220 tank with canister filtration and since adding it my water temp has stop fluctuating. It now holds CONSTANT 85.5° TO 85. 3°f. Previously I had three smaller heaters and the water temps would constantly fluctuate as much as 3 to 5 degrees either way not the fluctuation is barely noticeable.

I agree with Chris' comment. I am in metro Atlanta have 1 20' and on a nice sunny day I can raise the water temp 5 to 6 degrees in a 20,000 gal above ground pool. Hope that helps

This easily/consistently keeps my 10G tank at 78-80F. Should easily suffice for a 1G tank. You could go w/ less wattage but I don't recall saving much $ over a smaller one.

It depends on how warm you keep the room that the aquarium is on. If you keep the room temp at 75F, the water temp will be about 73 in the aquarium. Therefore if you only need the aquarium temp to be 78-80, that means it only has to raise the temp 5-7 degrees. You go by the room tempuature to determine how much wattage of heater you need. I personally use two on my 120gal to keep a more consistent temp throughout the tank because I have a cannister filter on both ends.

I have this chiller cooling a 55g reef with a 30g sump. I run 2 150w metal halides and it keeps the tank within a two degree swing between 76-78 degrees. Before I added I was creeping over 80-81 with fans blowing on the water surface.

you maybe able to on the lowest setting but you will need to keep a close eye on the temp..... highest usually gets you to 240 or 250 medium 170 , I never used it below that but maybe if you add water to the inside basin that might help keep the temp low.....but 90 is pretty low.....
