Quick question about chillers...
I just picked one up on ebay (may have been a mistake) and hooked it up - it's a 1/4hp Aquanetics - about 10yrs old. Runs very quietly. However, it doesn't appear to be cooling off the tank. I would expect noticeably cooler water coming out of the return line, but it isn't. How long should it take to drop a 72gal tank from 82 to 80? Thanks for the help!

OK - Update - tank is .5* warmer after 1-2 hours. Crap...
