I have my chiller piped thorugh the wall outside and was just wondering how often yours cames on/off? I know on/off is bad for the chiller

During lights on (9AM-9PM) mine comes on about once every 2 hours....

Ive been keeping the tank at 78-79 and without it on (when lights are on the temp goes to about 83). In any case about once every 2 hour for 15 minutes or so...

Not sure if thats acceptable or not...Just what mine does (and it's new so im no expert with the chiller)
