I really like this tank chiller. I really appreciate the the tilted touch panel because it isn't as awkward to adjust as my larger chiller. I love the large screen panel and it's super easy to see and adjust.

Bottom line - would recommend. My axolotl is certainly much happier and active.Ordered this for my axolotl tank so I could keep it at 63 degrees and not worry about fooling around with frozen water bottles. The unit is nice and compact and appears well built. The included accessories (pump, hose, clamps, connectors) also seem high quality.Setup was fairly straightforward, and since I have a canister filter, I just simply plumbed this the return hose, then added an extra disconnect on the hose for easy maintenance. As such, I cannot comment on the pump, as I did not need it on my setup. Programming the unit was also easy, as the included directions were easy to understand. The unit allows you to not only to set the desired temperature, but also set a temperature correction and the temperature range (how many degrees it allows the temp to rise before kicking on again).Couple things to note - the unit came with a default temp range of 10 degrees. For some applications this may be OK...but most aquatic animals do not do well with constantly being subjected to a 10 degree temperature swing. So I was glad to see I could set this to a 1 degree range, allowing my tank to stay at 63-64 degrees. Yes, this does make the unit run more often, but provides a much more stable environment. Second thing to note is that this kicks out a lot of heat (for me it was one of those 'well duh' moments). If you have this in an open area with good ventilation, this isn't really a concern. However, if you are like me and have a fully enclosed cabinet under your tank, it can become a big issue, easily reaching above the recommended max of 95 degrees. To solve this problem, I ended up cutting a hole in the back panel and adding a ventilation fan (with temp switch).Overall, I'm very happy I ordered this.
