which eheim canister would be enough for JBJ DBI-038

**zoombee** · 28th Jan 2008, 21:41

I decided to settle for JBJ Nano Chiller DBI-038 for my new setup.

http://www.jbjlighting.com/prod_nanomini_chiller.html

I was wondering which eheim canister would be able to give the best efficiency for that chiller?

my new tank is gonna be ADA cube garden 60-P (60x30x36cm) or cube garden 45-P (45x27x30cm).

any advise?

I would think that a 2026 or a 2215 will be good.
Any other equipment that will be inline with the filter and chiller? That will need to be taken into consideration as well.

no just directly from filter. 2026 will it be overkill? what is the appropriate flow rate i should be looking at?

sorry i think i got it wrong, i now using mini-chiller DBI-50.
It will turn on for 5mins than standby for 20 mins
i think DBI-38 maybe too small for a 2footer.
