SRC Member dumdum Posted August 16, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well, to start of with, I did consider reef angel and also aquatronica. For me, the choice between reef angel and apex was obvious. I'm not a techy person. The setup of Apex is for tech dummies like myself.i would not have benefited abit from reef angels ability to write codes. I've also read so many horror stories on the set up of reef angel controllers. Apex, on the other hand fulfills every single need of mine. In terms of flexibility, there really isn't anything else I need controlling. When you talk in comparison with Aquatronica, I wasn't impressed with their support team. I emailed them 3x... THREE TIMES, and got no reply from them.... Apex, I get a mail back within 24hours of each and every enquiry mail I sent them. The support's great! Also, aquatronica has no control over both vortechs and tunze's... On, the Apex, I can control both wavemakers! Price wise, Apex is cheap and good. Dollar for dollar, I would still choose Apex! I bought my Apex before it arrived in Singapore. Currently, I'm stuck with a US EB8 power bar... Still trying to crack my head on how to use it. That's my only 'headache' Bro, u got deep pockets. im still running on budget equipment. Quote My Humble Tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunkuboyz Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Phosphates dropped from 0.66ppm to 0.50ppm in 3 days.... Algae growth has halted. In fact, the cleaner crew of a total 10 Turbo snails, 3 Blue legged hermits and 2 lawnmover blenny has trimmed a good 60% of Algae!!! Awesome job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
