Hey everyone. I found this site via just doing some searching for salt water forums. That being said as an IT guy and a data analysis lover I am curious to see what everyone else's idea on this is and if any of you have suggestions.
I have a nano tank that I have had fish in for approximately 1 month. It is going fairly well. That being said I am looking for a system like APEX but at this time all I want it to do is to provide the data like pH, alkalinity, salinity, nitrites, nitrates, temp, etc and enter it into a database. I am using the ELASTICSEARCH stack to be able to graph everything and manipulate the data as I want to show to some friends or some of my other hobbyists in the area.
The thing with APEX is the price tag. I like dosing myself and I do not to lean on an automated system to do that for me while it is my responsibility to maintain my tank. I just want a system to provide me the metrics so I can base what I need to dose on that.
Hopefully this makes sense.
