Hey Plant Bois
This is the beginning of my semi-ultra highland terrarium build. For years I have been in love with high-altitude CP's, but never had a means to grow them. I have killed my fair share of plants. That ends now!
This is the Chilling system parts. I'm going to circulate cold water to a radiator w/ fan inside an exoterra tank. the chiller is 1/10 HP and the controller gets down to 32 Degrees Fahrenheit. It's largely over-sized for my water volume so I can hedge my bets that the heat exchange is sufficient to drop the air to the low 60s/high 50s. I tested it on the water reservoir and it dropped the water temperature to 45 degrees Fahrenheit in under 40 minutes.
I'll need some help making decisions on the equipment I'm going to use to piece this beast together. To kick this off, I was planning on using my Kessil A360we Tuna Blue unit and a Kessil A350w Tuna Blue that I had from an earlier Reef Tank. If I dialed these all the way to their white setting, should I be good to go?
Thanks!
