Looking good, appearance already much improved from the bulky box it was previously.

LOL my neighbors are alwase over using my stuff :). You should see the neighborhood kids when my outdoor theater fires up and my bouncy castle comes out...

Love this project! Terrance said 'Orange is the new black' after it came out, but I have to disagree. Black is the new black!

I got an apex 2016 several weeks ago. Not crazy about the colors, but they're hidden under my tank, so it really doesn't matter. Still, if I could've gotten a black one I definitely would have!

So I have started the redesign of the main housing for the Apex this will transfer to all the modules (FMM and more) also to the EB832 and the Trident if it ever makes it to market..

This is still rough and is more for sizing but I hope you get the idea. I will have to do some testing to see if the Stainless steel interferes with anything. I do believe the salinity reading issue will be fixed as I think the new apex has a issue with interference with the stacked boards. We will see....

There is quite a bit still to do but gets the overall sizing in line. I also wanted to see how the stainless would look.. What do you think?
