Great

Too Much Information by MIKE S

Comments: I selected the AC3 Pro because it seemed to have a lot of flexibility to monitor beyond just basic TEMP and PH readings. I purchased the Temp, PH, Conductivity and ORP probes. All worked right out of the box after simple calibration steps provided in the instructions. Now the trick is keeping my tank tuned to stay within the readings. I so much info that I didnt have before. I was not a consistent tester of water parameters. Now I am able to graph readings throughout the day and night and can really see some interesting trends. I am still working on the controlling the lighing, temp, CO2 and Ozone to maintain more of a stable environment on my 120Gal live reef/fish tank. I also connected an external breakout box to a waterbug WB200 water-on-the-floor sensor and was able to modify the AC3 program to alarm me when I get a spill or leak. Still working on setting up the Web and email alerts. The Aquanotes software took a little work to configure but so far Neptune's tech support has been there for me. Having some difficulty with the X10 dontrols but recommend the DC-4 or DC-8 to control devices. Automation and control is cool! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
