never close the door as due to space concern left the chiller inside the cabinet, but night time on aircon off the chiller.

The heat is ok in the day time. I am thinking of linking to external temperature sensor to power off and on the chiller when reach desire temperature

the temperaure remain at 25 degree C and the chiller keep running never stop

Would this mean that the chiller is under powered??

May be the heat from his chiller heat up the sump wate coz as I see most heat will trap inside the cabinet even though the door leave it open.so the water will not reach the desire temperature and the chiller keep running lo. My own opinion.

Imo, 23 or 24 is too cold.. depend your coral origin from where.. our region about 26. So no need to go 23 or 24. Can save up electricity also ma. My 2 cent worth.
