Step one for any company like this should be to hire a native english speaking team for management, distribution, support, and sales and have them located in the states.

It just doesn't work well otherwise it seems (some exceptions, but in general) in the long run.

I am interested and will be following along, great to have options!

Often times, a US patent goes a long way too.

What about those of us that use a Cal Rx? I need a device to measure and report ALK, CAL, Mg, etc. but not dose anything. I can manually adjust my Cal Rx to raise or lower ALK and CAL as needed.

From a discussion I had with the owner of Vertex, I was informed that the new Vertex Cerebra will be able to connect to this to remotely provide readings and even allow control of dosing or turning off a Calcium Reactor, etc.

We don´t speak with Vertex about this, the owner of vertex has given you incorrect information, AB/ABEX will only work with an aquarium controller that we will give the name in MACNA. Thank you

Reviewed the website, but it doesn't have anything mentioned about the cost for the probes. Can you please provide us with the cost of those probes?

[QUOTE = "mitch91175, post: 6229907, miembro: 38897"] Se revisó el sitio web, pero no se menciona nada sobre el costo de las sondas. ¿Puede por favor proporcionarnos el costo de esas sondas? [/ QUOTE]

Of course, for the European market the cost of each probe is 53,70€ without tax, minimum useful life of one year.

Calibration fluid cost? Also, in order to measure calcium/magnesium I see that you need both devices, but is that all that will be measured are dKH/calcium/magnesium?

Just trying to get an overall annual cost for the systems. Not see much pricing available anywhere. If you have pricing for each unit posting here would be great.

Just trying to help people be able to make a decision about your product. Very limited info circulating.

I was told that he had talked to Coralvue about it’s ability to work with the Cerebra for reporting values, etc.

Calibration fluid cost?

I don´t know the price of calibration fluid in the USA market, in europe the cost is around 18€ without VAT for 5 liters. You can make around 140 test with this quantity, we recommend doing a daily analysis for the proper functioning of the sensor.

@MikelM
Any chance consumers can pre order? If yes how much one of these cost?

For USA you need contact with CoralVue

Are you saying you need to calibrate the sensors every day?
