Wish to share my alpha setup

This is not my idea but a idea adopt from taiwan no thanks to bro alan aka Eviltrain (he poisonous but thanks to him i have learn alot and finally got my tank setup right) So here i wish share his poison to me and from me to you all.
All comment welcome hope other bros can point out what need to improve. This is a 1 chiller supplying chilling for 2 tanks by the means of using a stainless steel pipe functioning like a coil.



This setup i'm using ehiem 2028 to push water thru chiller using HS28A (i find chiller like under power so might revamp and switch to resun 280 to try)



Chiller temp



Above tank with lifestock temp



Below tank cycling temp.

Nice diy project, save electricity!

Nah i won't say it a DIY saving electricity i would say yes better than running 2 chiller or having it in a aircon room running 24/7.

Currently as you can see the chiller is sitting beside my lower tank. So there is some heat generate during kick in. (As suggested by many helpful bros over the other side will try out all the method to reduce the timing)

Currently

Kick in and last for almost 1 hr to bring down temp
Rest for 45 min before next round.

Compressor gas or cool water running through the coil?

Mine kick in for 5-10mins to bring down to 24
Rest for 30 mins ....

Any problem with mine?

Boss cool water hahaha I haven't get to that using compressor gas stage (Unless i can find that big coil of flexible stainless steel pipe to experience with like that crazy setup in taiwan using a old air-con unit to do it)
