Coolworks IceProbe?

I have a 12g nanocube. and i was wondering how well the Iceprobe works? also, do you HAVE to drill the tank? or can i use those "J hooks" that some people use to hook up chillers? thanks

I am running the ice probe on my 12g AP w/a 150w MH Sunpod. I installed the probe in a HOB I had similar to the "microchiller" in the link below. Without the IP the tank would run from 81 to 85, with the IP I can control the temp to whatever I want. This with a room temp from 71 in the morning and 75 mid afternoon. During the summer our air conditioner froze up and the room temp got up to 84. At this room temp the chiller was able to keep the tank at 83.4.

I’m not familiar with “J hooks”.
