Nice! The coral next to the red wing is cool too.

Appreciate it! This is the first auto tester I have become interested in. I think because of simplicity, fewer cords and no reagents. How is maintenance? Digging through notes- last time I checked dKH was January 4th and prior November 9... Sheesh need to step my game up.

Anyone using one in the club? Recent KalamazooReefer videos are interesting. No reagent needed in particular.

and how about you? Does it excite you? Apologies if you are not a robot.

What do you mean by diffuse style? I got these late December. I like that they do not cover much of the light, just the four corners. Seemed pricey to me but I was getting yelled at for not having much on the christmas list this year (its weird being over 40 and in-laws demanding xmas...
