This is my new toy as well! I figured the Trident would be a while, so I am tinkering with this ReefBot from ReefKinetics - It uses standard testing kits, so I think the reagents will get expensive pretty fast, but we shall see! I am on my third calibration now - the tests I did last night came out consistent but were high.
For example: ALK is actually 8.1 - tested 10.9.
I also bent a needle when I first ran because the holders are not correctly aligned with needle.

Other than that the app appears to work well and pretty simple to setup! It will be interesting to see what comes of it. I can see it being a good addition to trident, running big 3 there and running misc tests here.
I have the following setup, which takes up all 8 spots:
RS ALK
RS CALC
RS MAG
API Nitrate

Coming along nicely! Hows the reefbot been, anymore issues with the needle or anything else?

No issues with needle. I test nitrate and phosphate on reefbot daily as I try to increase nutrients. I had very washed out corals, decided to move from 9dkh to 8 and increase nutrients. I was at 0... I was running gfo and carbon, now I run carbon every once in a while.

I test big 3 with trident.

I have had that WD colony for 2 years or more now...I have no idea how people sell it for so cheap! Slowest grower of all time for me. WD Jr grows quick though

Tank is looking great!!!

To bad you aren't closer, I would give you a frag of my Vivid Confetti. I am in the process of upgrading and will be giving some SPS away.
