So I’ve had many reef tanks, I’m clueless to these new Neptune Apex systems.

This is my new tank:

Reefer 350
Red Sea RSK 300 skimmer
Two ReefLed 90’s
Red Sea Reefwave 25
VarioS 6 return pump
Jebao Doser 3.4 wifi
Inkbird heater controller
Two Eheim 250watt ceramic heaters
No auto-feeder yet, will want that too.

Also I know I need more water movement as that Reefwave 25 is at 100% and is not enough.

Now I’m happy so far and I would like most everything to run under one controller.

Will everything above be compatible so the Apex system can control all their functions and features.


Also I know I need more water movement as that Reefwave 25 is at 100% and is not enough.

If not, what do I need to replace.

So if needed I need a shopping list of which brand and model numbers work.

You really do not want everything controlled by any one controller. If it fails your in big trouble. There really is no reason to control pumps with an apex. I would only control one heater with the apex and use a Rancho to control the second one. Set one a degree lower than the other for the best life out of everything.
