It kicks in at 28 and stop at 27.

My anemone was sick and died since I installed chiller. Before this it was very healthy with me for past 2 months :(

I thought the weather is getting hot these few weeks and I want to keep it <= 28c. But it created adverse effect on my anemone.

Coral seems okay so far.

Sorry, hijack abit. My problem is opposite. I feel my dbe-200 1/hp chiller is abit inefficient.

Set at 27.9 kick in at 38.5 and cut off at 27.5 take 35-40min. My tank is 100 gallon. Using a 1260 for chiller pump, pump to a head of 1.4m . is it normal? Any advices? Thanks
