Currently my chiller set 27.5 to 28 degree,shd i set frm 27 to 28 degree to stay longer?

your temp seems abit too close, maybe thats why it continues to kick in and out...you can try 26 and 28 deg.

But i worry my chiller take longer time to chill frm 28 to 26.Btw im using a external controller with temp sensor on main tank.Maybe i shd try 27-28.

It's pretty common this time of the year, as the ambient temperature is higher thus the tank water temperature will be normalised accordingly.

i've actually push up the limit slightly, so far things are ok

yeah mine too... this heat is causing it to kick in every 2 hours instead of 3 or 4.
