Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Thanks again, I suspect it has nothing to do with the pumps but that the wave engine may not support all of the tuning that the cloud edition controller offers. Not a big deal to me as long as I can get decent, programable flow. It is hard for me to put into words just how much I dislike the Maxspect App. I've used it for a year or so and not once have I not had to go back in to it because it is undocumented (other than some short wordless video clips) and not, at least to me, intuitive. It is worth it to me to buy a Hydros just to never see that app again.
maxspect controller ......to the gun range lol...
 
yes I agree I have the old max 300 and the controller is a pain in the a to program and the screen is to small and then half the time it does not do what I want. I cant get them to alternate no matter how I program them...so this wave V2 is my hope ...
The CE screen isn't bad, as long as you can remember what all of their silly symbols mean but the app... half the time I go into program it and end up just going through 'information' screens that say nothing useful, then I have to reopen it and try again and finally click the right combo to make a change, then guess at what symbol I want to pick. It works but I am not a fan.

sounds like a big waste of time
 
What I just read going through some other forums - the pumps are the same and "should" work with the WaveEngine. However, it sounds like the change came about in 2022 when Maxspect "broke away" from CoralVue. The pumps are the same from what everyone can find and see but CoralVue can't guarantee it will work it sounds like.
 
Been doing frag Auctions today and yesterday . I got 9 new frags coming !!! How about them Packer's too !!! WOOO HOOO !!!
What did you get man!?
 
Well, looks like I missed about 300 messages again. Hope everyone had a fine Sunday!
 
Good morning!

Wishing you all a strong start to the week with a magnificent Monday!
 
Good morning everyone (I’ll post my daily quote and song in a separate post) had a busy weekend this weekend! Full of shopping, church, and a Christmas party with family last night! River also got to participate in his first “auction” last night as seen with the picture below. (Done with fake money, basically white elephant gift exchange but you bid on the prizes instead).

Looks like River either had too much fun with the eggnog or was so bored he did his own thing.

Option A on this one, especially since this was from his post-milk dinner
