Re: 240

I talked with Jack earlier about my new light. PFO is sold out, but I am on the List. I checked PFOs webpage, and they say the solaris is sold out until January. Gah....But I can wait.~Michael

Re: 240

That is my favorite! When I get my 1200g corner tank up and running, I'm gonna have one of those. I just gotta wait another 14 years, 6 months, and 23 days until my daughter graduates from college.

Re: 240

Evrything sounds swimmingly well Michael! Jack and I saw a mid-sized angel at Exotic Reef Imports he mentioned was reef safe. Ask him about which one it was as I can't recall.

Re: 240

Just curious, why the Jr instead of the Pro? And did you look at the Aquatronicia system? I bought one of the pinpoint conductive meters and I VERY much prefer it to a refractometer. Just a thought...

Re: 240

The Aquacontroller 3 and Pro are nice but: My lighting system is the Solaris. I dont need a controller. I am going to be running two Echotech Vortechs with the Wireless WM. So I really only need it to control my two or four Koralias, my heaters, and a few other things. I just did not see any point in getting the other models when the Jr, will do everything I need it to.
I will probably be gettign a pinpoint Salinity monitor, but I just got the refractometer for now.

How difficult is it to calibrate the Pin Point Monitor?

Re: 240

I have an AC III and it's really not being used much, now that I have the Solaris and my Vortechs are controlled by their own controllers. Right now it's monitoring temp., pH, ORP (not really needed), and cotrolling heater and light over the fuge. Before my Solaris it was controlling the lights and the pumps. I'll have to find creative ways or buy some new equipment that it can control!
