Think about that pump purchase a bit more, and don't go in with the Apple mentality of "Well I have one of their products, might as well get another". There are a lot of pumps out there, and the reality is they really don't need to be controlled by some master controller like the Apex, some of them can, but unless you really want to get very specific about a wave pattern you do, just not worth the it. Not to say those pumps aren't good pumps, I really have no experience with them, but it's kind of like wanting your lights to be Apex controlled when the lights already have a controller that controls the settings.
