First you must know what equipment are you using for the complete system as the total wattage will determine the chiller:

1) What type of lighting and how many watts
2) How many pumps are using and how many watt for each pump**
3) What is your tank volume size

** pump means return pump, chiller pump, skimmer pump, etc.

Btw, what are you keeping that needs 20 deg C?

Thanks guys for the replies.

Chiller is for keeping coldwater fish, not marine. There is no lighting at all and fishes are kept in plastic tub of 3 x 2 ft. Water volume expected is about 175 litres.

Please advise.
