I am setting up my USA Prime Current 1/3 chiller. Should I have the pump running water through it all the time or just when the chiller kicks in? Thanks.
yes, you want water that moves water slowly continuosly running through the chiller. The slower the water moves through the more contact time it as with the chiller.

For example I need to set 81 F from the controller to achieve 77 F in the tank. Not sure which one is correct...
Most temp controllers such as Ranco are pretty good and reliable. I trust quality mercury and red alcohol type best though.
If you have a human type fever thermometer, warm up some water close to 98' F, use the fever thermometer to check your other bulb types and the controller.
If needed, you can calibrate the controller.
Its easier to calibrate a thermometer with cold rather than hot or trusting another thermometer. Ice water will be 32F and is free.
