I'm currently getting ready to set up my Reefer 350 as an upgrade from my IM 25 lagoon, and I have enough stuff to keep both tanks running, and going to use the 25 as a Q tank while the Red Sea cycles, and the rest of the stuff gets here. I bought a new 8 plug Apex bar as my other one has a dead socket in it. Can I use it without being hooked up into the controller? I just need it to power my return pump, MP40's, 1 of my A360X and the heaters while it cycles, and once I does I'd move the entire controller over.
