Q
Is there any way to change it to constant supply or do I have to use the presets on the power strip?
Does this unit come with a holder for the probes
I ordered the 2016 controller and wanted to make sure I had the basic accessories to set up my tank. I see probe holders sold on your site and wanted to know if the 899.00 kit includes them.
PROS
Monitors vitals off tank accurately. Most stuff is plug and play.
CONS
Price. Need new videos for newer models and updated app. Most videos online are several years old. A lot has changed now that they have an app.
REVIEW
Easy to install and hook up. Definitely helps make my tank set up easier to maintain. Initial kit focuses on the basic needs of the tank and Neptune has lots of add ons for total control of the tank. The salt probe may take some tinkering after calibrating to register properly.
PROS
Easy to set up and change module outputs to customize it the way you want
CONS
A Bit pricey but worth it
REVIEW
Just bought this package and i am so far impressed with the simplicity of how it hooks up. The wifi is very good ,but i also have it connected via ethernet as well . Very pleased so far, a bit expensive, but worth Every penny!
PROS
Works great. does what it says on the box. Very expandable.
CONS
other than shelling out the money for it not a lot calibration can be a bit frustrating.

I have been keeping reef tanks since the early 90's and have always regarded controllers as an overly expensive luxury. When I set up my new tank after pricing out the controllers I needed on it to do what I wanted to do . It was almost the price of the Apex and I would not of had remote connectivity. So I bit the bullet and bought one. The setup was indeed a little frustrating but after I got it on the wifi it went better. A few helpful hints 1. Do not calibrate your salinity probe right away. Allow to soak in your tank for a week. Watch the reading it will raise over time when it levels out then calibrate it. 2. when calibrating your salinity probe or any probe for that matter, float the calibration fluid so it is the same temp as your tank. 3. dont trust any probe with out back up and calibrate once a month. 4. if you use the solenoid valves remember these are diaphragm type valves and will not work without a pressure differential across them. In other words they will not work in gravity fed applications. 5.The display is great when you have wet hands and dont want to fumble for your phone.
All in all I will say its a great product with a good user base around it to answer your questions. I will not run another tank with out one. I have my display and my frag tank on one apex brain and it works great. In the last 6 months it has saved the tank 3 times so it has paid for itself at least once over.Hide
PROS
wifi and fast tech support response from ticketing system
CONS
expensive up front
REVIEW
i really cant imagine not owning this. this controller makes my life so much easier now. its expensive up front, but its well worth its investment. trust me!
