I’m a newb to this. Have a 265 being installed next week. Is there a digitial system with Iphone alerts that notifies about all parameters? If know there are some that control a lot but haven’t seen one that tells you all the tank levels. Thanks

If you mean everything single parameter not that I know of. I believe some are in beta testing that are a long ways off but nothing that is out there right now

I’d be happy if it covered most of the major water parameters.

Many of the parameters are difficult to read correctly. Due to the amount of elements in Saltwater.

This is not a controller but a testing solution that reads many parameters
Which one could use in conjunction with a controller to help with keeping an aquarium. Hopefully we will see more testing
In the future.

Not sure what levels you're referring to. With the Apex Fusion system and app on your phone, you can view temp, ph, orp, salinity at a glance, and you can set text and/or email alarms when parameters are outside of limits you set. Apex is almost to market with their Trident device, which will allow for up to 4x daily monitoring and reporting of calcium, alkalinity and magnesium. That Mindstream device looks like it will be fantastic; if it ever makes it to market.
