Houdini Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Very cool. Keep it coming. In additon to MP 10 you might want to consider IM Spin Stream or Hydor version which is about 1/2 the price. Right now I am using Hydor and it really seems to help with keeping water flows inside tank random. Link to comment
NeoClown Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 How's the goby doing? I was wondering, did you does any bacteria to help cycle your tank? Am following along. Link to comment
LebaneseDlight Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 Wow! Didn't realize anyone had responded to my tank thread How's the goby doing? I was wondering, did you does any bacteria to help cycle your tank?Am following along. The goby is doing well. He's gotten bigger in size. He's quite aggressive though, which caught me by surprise. He's always hanging out front and he's got an interesting personality. I used Brightwell Bacter7 to start up some beneficial bacteria, but that's it. Very cool. Keep it coming. In additon to MP 10 you might want to consider IM Spin Stream or Hydor version which is about 1/2 the price. Right now I am using Hydor and it really seems to help with keeping water flows inside tank random. I ended up getting two RW-4s and I'm LOVING them They are synched together, super silent and no dead spots in my display. Link to comment

Either way you'll love it- brings wonderful hours of tinkering/programming and peace of mind Does the mid level havea name? It's one level down from the gold, the $549 version. It doesnt have the PM2 Module (Conductivity/Salinity) Lab Grade Conductivity (Salinity) Probe But, System Includes: 1 - Apex Base Unit1 - Apex Display 1 - EnergyBar 8 Power Strip 1 - Temperature Probe 1 - LAB Grade pH Probe Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Great! Thats the Apex full, the best version. The Gold is the same brain but adds some probes, not really necessary to begin with. Congratulations, I'm sure you'll love it! PM me if you need any help- I am actually managing the Apex Programming of several members' tanks via Apex Fusion as we speak Link to comment
LebaneseDlight Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thanks bud! I feel like I"m not technically challenged, but I did manage to bust my Nanobox Duo when I got it by plugging in the wrong ac adapter into the fan so..... I may hit you up Link to comment
