Ok, so I admit it; I've been a lousy member of R2R and a crappy friend. I could give all kinds of excuses/reasons why I went MIA but will save you the agony. Bottom line is I jumped out of the R2R ocean without warning or saying anything to nearly anyone. It was an uncalled for and selfish act. So, I offer my apologies to you, and anyone else, that I had built a cyber-friendship with through this forum. I won't let it happen again.

Thanks @vetteguy53081 ... was going to post over on your 660g but will refrain from doing so now. Oh, I'm not sure who told you I was healthy. I mean, I am healthy, but only from the neck down though! o_O

Thanks @Raege ... I'll get back to the songs momentarily. For now, however, I would like to let you know that I will NEVER EVER be poking around you. Not even in a state near you. I am skeered of the reaction I may provoke! :p

Salutations and greetings reefers. Was looking at re purposing my wife’s cabinet to house the apex but it’s not quite deep enough for my liking and I don’t think blowing out the back a inch and a half will look good enough for the boss to approve. Going hunting this weekend to see what I can find to repurpose that will also be aesthetically pleasing next to tank.
Updated the apex firmware today pretty easy operation and straight forward. Started learning its capabilities outlet wise pretty cool piece of gear.

Yes numbers not from tank.....it’s still set up in kitchen by a cold pantry window not in tank ;Sorry
Like the graphing apex offers as well as taking over for keeping record of my test results. It may not make my reef any better but looks like the geek in me has a new toy to learn :cool:

Great job, Ray! I am just wondering with your skills in computer why didn’t you build your own reef-pi controller? I would love to give it a try but I suck at this .... lol. :(

Make sure you become an expert at all this Apex stuff. I'm going to be upgrading some of my gear in the next year and I'm going to depend on you to be my mentor. So get to work and study up! P.S. I'm glad you are enjoying it.:)

Thanks for the love! I see you're in Peoria, AZ. I was in Phoenix from 10/4 thru 10/14 helping my brother with some personal issues. The weather was wonderful!

Yep! I miss the changing of the seasons until I see a blizzard or polar vortex go through the North, where I'm originally from (Minnesota). Otherwise, I enjoy BBQing with the family outside in January. I love Chicago and have been there many times -- mostly for the pizza. :)
