So im figuring out more and more about this chiller... it seems to have a delta of 2 degrees celsius. Thats almost a 4 degree fahrenheit swing.

With the offset from actual temperature i can set the chiller to 25C or 26C, on this unit which turns out to ACTUALLY be a range of either 72.6-76.4 F or 75.5-81.3 F. Neither of this is optimal in that the delta is so large, but which would be better for the reef?

As referenced in other posts, the chiller is an old aqua-medic and im trying to make omelettes with broken eggs.

My tank swings ~4 *F daily. No chiller. Stony coral, healthy. I see no issue.
