Hi all,
Beginner here. Just wanted to check if my setup is ok? I plan on running my chiller through a canister filter instead of a pump.
I have a Hailea HC-300A chiller and the specs say it has a flow rate of 1000~2500L/H. I want to buy an Aqua One 1250 canister filter, which has a maximum flow rate of 1400L/H. I assumed that since the maximum flow of my canister exceeds the minimum flow of the chiller, this will be ok. Is this correct?
Also, my tank is only 80L, so I assume most of the gear will be running at pretty low rates.
Thanks for your help!

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
