My tank has been running around 84 for the past week and corals are showing signs of stress. I'm looking to buy a chiller for my 50 gallon aquarium, any recommendations?

I've run JBJ and am currently using an aqua euro usa. Never had or have had a problem with either one. As far as your sizing needs, go to JBJ'S website. All the information you need will be located there.

And as always, anything labeled for our hobby is price gouged. I always like looking at plant grow stuff where applicable.

Additionally I checked, it is safe for SW use as it has titanium pipes.

Word of advice, its best if you can get a handle on temp other ways before using a chiller. Once you implement one the issue is what to do with the ambient heat the chiller creates. It can get a room quite toasty very fast . Mine is mounted outside my fish room under my deck
Love my chiller.... Keeps things... Chilly...

I am running AC in the room, but I want something that can control the temperature of my tank, without having to cool the whole room down. I should have bought a chiller years ago as my tank always tends to run very hot in the summer months.
