So I have been looking to replace my VASTLY overpowered, outdated and noisy 3/4 HP chiller with somehting smaller and more manageable.
I imagine most of you all run one, so what do you recommend and why?
Thanks!!

There is around 100g give or take a little (60g main, 30g fuge not completely full and 30g sump also not full), and I only need 4 degrees (without the chiller the tank runs 78-79 at worst in the summer). The 3/4 HP beast I am using only runs about a minute an hour or so, but its a minute I dread!! That thing is crazy loud, but I didnt mind when it was in the basement in the house I lived in before this one.
