Joint Custody issue / Tax credits / 183 nights

I have Joint Physical Custody of my child.  For the year of 2017, I had my child 183 nights and my ex had my child 182 nights. He pays $70 in child support a month and health insurance so he believes he is the one to claim my daughter every year. He has claimed her since 2010.  He has stated he will claim her again this year.  I know if I claim my daughter, I will be audited as he is claiming her.  Again, I had one more night than him.  He pays some child support ($70 per month) and he has a high deductible health insurance for the child.  Should I claim her or should I just let my ex claim the child?
