So what's simple and easy? I want something that will monitor my water parameters maybe power heads and maybe dosing? What's everyone using. We're talking for a 150g mixed reef setup on a average budget with limited space.

Anyone have experience with this? Was thinking maybe going this route than getting something else to control pumps and power heads later.

I had one but it was giving a different ph reading then my probe, so I sold it. Could have just been me though, I know a lot of people who do love it on another forum

I have led lighting that's controlled already so I really only want water testing power heads and ato pump controlled. A lot of these controllers do way more than I'll ever use.

How was the lighting readings on the seneye? Seems like a pretty cool option to figure out where to put my frags as I start adding coral. 36" deep tank there's gonna be all sorts of difference in light lvls.

I'm thinking even rough ideas on par will be useful

Look for a used Neptune Apex if $$$ budget is tight. The free Fusion upgrade is totally worth it. Peace of mind on those vacations.

I travel a lot for a living and I love my Apex. I just purchased it during this past Black Friday's sales and can't believe I've gone so long without this. It's comforting to be able to control my pumps, etc. via the internet in case something does go wrong.

+1 on the apex. I set mine up just before fusion was released which was a little bit of a pain since you had to learn the programming on the fly. Now that fusion is hear the web based interface is so much easier.
