4 ft planted tank with chiller

[vintageo2]

Dear all,

Currently im having a 2ft planted tank with some tetras and yamato shrimps, normal water temperature bout 29 - 30 degrees.

Would like to do a 4ft by 1ft by 14inches. That roughly bout 126Litres if my calculation is correct.

Few questions would like the seniors have for advises.

1. For the glass tank, any idea roughly how much it cost? im thinking of using 10mm thk crystal grey glass.
2. I want to use Eheim external filter, any recommendations and cost?
3. Chiller, im thinking to use hailea, maybe HS28A, is it ok, or need to upsize? any cost advise?

Overall, thinking of doing planted tank, with red cherry shrimps, hence need to bring the temperature down.

Thanks in advance

Off the top of my head:

1. Get a quote from the tank makers like fishybusiness, sgbro, CR aquarium

2. I would use 2 no. of 2217 to ensure proper circulation and filtration

3. Fan will suffice for cherry shrimps and most plants. HS28a will be underpowered for 4ft

Sgbros has branched their aquarium services as Tank Junction

Thanks sfk7,

2. If I insist to use 1 caninster then what model should I get from eheim?
3. If I prefer to use chiller, as HS28a is underpowered, what's the next model to get?

Thanks

Any other advises from other bros?

For the glass tank, maybe four hundred plus minus. Call CR aquarium or visit seaview check with the boss as it is custom size. For 126l, eheim 2217 is enough. If you got more budget, pro 3 2075 is bigger and also can adjust flow if you find it too much flow. Hailea hs 28 is also sufficient. I used it on 120l tank before. No problem.

Hailea Chiller can check out seaview or c328 for good price
