Both. Actually three readings. The chiller reads 78/79....I have a pinpoint probe in the sump that is at 78.5....and I have a pinpoint probe in the display tank that reads 77.5.

Just thinking out loud here..
I should also mention that in addition to the 300W heater off the chiller I have a 200W heater plugged in as a heater normally would. Whenever I look I never see the 300W heater on and the 200W heater is always on. Both are in the sump.

It's weird. I guess it's doing the job but I never hear it. I'd like to hear the chiller kick in just once, just so I know it's alive.

Cheers,
