what temps do you guys keep your reefs at ?

80-81 with chiller cause without chiller my temps go to 84-85 as I live in the Caribbean. Also have a 120W pentair UV but haven’t noticed chiller working that much more since I installed it.
 
77-79 in the winter and 78-79.5 in the summer. I used to maintain the temps above 80 in the summer, but since I kept chalices and acans, I have lowered it to be around 79 or lower as these LPS seems to do better with the slightly lower temp.

My heater runs a lot now to keep the temp higher.
 
74F

79-80ºF No chiller so I keep it higher so that the summer months are not so bad on the swings. House stays between 70-80ºF. Large swings of 10+ º in the time of a few hours I would think is more of a problem then a few degrees temp range.
