Opinions please on which hydro system to go for?

Agreed - as long as you can keep the temperature of the reservoir low enough.

Hygrozyme always worked for me without a water chiller

I ran an 8 pack for awhile and had to put frozen bottles of water in the controller to keep the temps down. But they can grow some really nice plants.

Me too up to a point now with chiller I have not used a benificial. I've tried a few but they were all powder form and really fucked up my filters .

I wanted a chiller when i ran hydro but never bought one, kinda ghetto grow style but it worked well with the additives.

Check out 420Someguy on IG. He has the instructions for using SIPs.

Scottyballs grew 1 LB plants in a waterfarm with FloraNovaBloom and CHM the whole way through.

As much as a regular chiller so the amount of removed from res's plus a bit more for compressor. Short answer yes lol, I have it outside the grow and pipe it to res. I also have a passive glycol/copper loop (150') buried that chills the water when it's colder outside.
