Heres a pic of my new controller, Its a Reef Keeper Elite from Digital Aquatics.
sells for about 400-500 dollars. i wanted to buy a controller for my new aquarium but was saddened by the price of some of its competitors with high price tags well into the 800's and up and, some can be hard to program. then i found this and was a little leery at first till i looked up some of the reviews i found on the net. i was happy with what i seen, So i decided to take the plunge and buy one. i have to say its great so far, with digital aquatics they release updates that can be downloaded via the SID straight from your home pc.
i dont want to go over board with giving them props but i do like this product and would suggest it to all my friends here at Aquarium advice. If i had to suggest something to them, i would ask for them to send directions with unit instead of downloading it off the site or CD it came with.
this is what mine looks like...
As you can see my Temp is 80 degrees and PH is steady at 7.9ish
i can even graph my data so i know when some may have went wrong. their are other probes sold for the RKE but i have nt purchessed them yet, but do plan to in the future. the 2 power strips are great and can be fully programed to turn on and off just about anything you need, settings for wave makers, heaters to turn on when temp get to low and chillers to turn on when temp get to high. i cant explain all the functions this thing does.
by posting this i hope i didnt brake any regulations here at Aquarium Advice. if i did by some chance pls delete this post.
