I'm guessing the Trident is going to be like the COR pumps were. Promised, then silence for an extraordinarily long time, the out of nowhere an announcement that they are shipping. Regardless, I would not make any plans.

Maybe a secret Black Friday release? [emoji39]

They sold enough 2016 Apex units already by just announcing Trident. It was a good sales strategy.

Do you drive a car? Are you a scuba diver? Two items off the top of my head that require regular maintenance. In the case of scuba diving, which I am, I've already invested a lot of money in my dive gear which is my life support under water. It has maintenance requirements every other year and I do not skip even if I have a year or so in which I do not use it much. It is rinsed heavily after every use. I inspect it before every dive. Warm water or cold. I do not miss a beat. Every inspection and rebuild is about 180 dollars give or take for my BC and my regulators (roughly every other year). It is part of the hobby but looking at it I'm not a fish and need it to breath and survive underwater especially in the colder waters I dive in.

I ask you why would you treat the Trident any differently? You are using the tool to measure parameters in your reef tank and you may, if using Apex dosing pumps, ask it to dose based on a measurement. It is, therefore, a part of your reef ecosystem and it dang well better be accurate. No different than you servicing your car, scuba equipment, or any other piece of life support or safety gear.

Edit - removed last sentence since I sounded mean and that was not my intent. Sorry!

It was mentioned but they didn't go into detail. I thought I heard 18 - 24 months which doesn't seem bad to me based on the number of tests you will do yearly. Put it into the bigger picture and it makes sense based on how they are testing compared to other products.
