I currently have a 75gal. tank (four foot length). I may upgrade but not by much, maybe a 100 or 120. I run it with (2) Ecotech MP40, a Vectra return pump, and a Versa on a calcium reactor. These water movers are controlled through the Mobias app. Additionally I have a Milwaukee PH Controller on the calcium reactor and a titanium heater on an Inkbird temperature controller. My lighting consist of (2) Kessil a360x with the wi-fi dongle supplemented with an Aquatic life T5 Hybrid fixture connected to a Kasa smart strip.
All of this equipment is non Apex ready or compatible.
So why would I consider an Apex controller?
I would like to monitor and chart the tank ph because I may need to dose Kalk at times throughout the day. I also would like to monitor the temperature and program fans for cooling as needed.
I know that there are many other functions that can be performed by an Apex controller, if anyone who might have similar or non Apex equipment and uses an Apex controller offer some suggestions or alternative uses I'd greatly appreciated.
I've been hoping to preserve my rapidly dwindling brain cells but if using an Apex is worth it I'd take the risk.
