Plug and play

[AJreefs]

Due to some personal circumstances and lack of time I am looking to purchase a plug and play system that support various corals. What system is going to be simple to maintain and effective enough to keep my SPS happy!?


thanks kindly

your system cannot be a plug and play. it simply isnt possible. there are possible systems that is automated but, you yourself have to be there to test, and do water changes.

as an example. you buy the top of the line stuff.

lighting with controller. apex elite for PH, TEMP, etc. skimmer( you have to mention you have to empty the collection cup). auto feeder, all these system can go bad at any time.

but wait, your coral isnt doing fine. you have to test your mag, ca, alk, nitrate, phosphate, etc.

theres many threads out there about this stuff. just search and you'll find your answer

Unfortunately without a digital alk meter, it makes what you are wanting pretty impossible as the above states.

Plug and play simply refers to a complete system ready to, in this case support sps, without needing to purchase more equipment. I dont expect it to be fully automated as well but just SPS ready on the sales floor.

You're talking about an all in one... like a biocube, nanocube, etc... right? Just wanted to clarify for everyone.
