My stretch goal is to make my own titration sensor using a spectral LUX sensor and incorporating the the Trident's manifold and cuvette system. That way, I can feed the data to my homebrew Apex Display, and slowly move away from the Apex altogether...

The Trident protocol is not open source. There have been previous attempts to reverse engineer the protocol, but I believe Neptune intervened and shut those efforts down. Boo! Plus if they change the protocol, we will have to keep chasing their changes. Not worth it. Which is why I am thinking...

Hello folks, I'd like to express my gratitude to @anthias for providing me with a Trident that I can customize and utilize for calibrating a DIY Alk/Ca/Mg tester. Several key factors drive this initiative: The ABC reagent bottles do not fit into a Trident. Reagent usage is monitored in an...

Is there a specific thread we need to post pictures in for the next month? Or just in our tank journals?

What type of starfish? OR

I would love to get / buy 1-2 lb of live rock if its still available. My main arch is overgrown with GSP and I need to redo pretty much all my rockwork. Are there any known pests in the rock?

Hello folks, Does anyone have about 1 foot of the ATK orange tube to spare? Neptune was out of stock when I visited last week. Thanks!

About to buy a Fritz Blue Box from Neptune today. Thank you all for your feedback! Hopefully it mixes cleaner than the awful Red Sea black. @IOnceWasLegend , @Srt4eric - does the Fritz blue box come with smaller bags in it or a single large bag?

@anthias hasn’t replied back since last week, but I’m picking it up when I get back on Monday.

Hey @anthias , I sent you a few DMs. Could you please revert back whenever you have a moment? Thanks! Update: Since I've not heard from you in a few days, I wanted to know if I can pick it up the week of the 27th? We are traveling for thanksgiving and will be out all of next week.

I want to redesign the Trident to accept the stock ABC reagent bottles. So this would be perfect! Thank you for your generosity @anthias !

I’ll take it!!

Yep! ESP32 is a game changer! Either ESPHome or MQTT either works.

Reefpi has a built in GUI! SO you get it "free" if you set it up on an RPi.

@richiev If I am reading this correctly, you want to control multiple DC outputs via an IoT implementation?

That's great - reefpi should have its own display. The one I made is specific to Apex.

What are you looking to display without an Apex?

@phatduckk you are being summoned: https://www.facebook.com/groups/neptunesystemscommunity/permalink/6581126201935879/?mibextid=W9rl1R

I mix to 1.026 SG and then heat to 77F. The brown residue forms 2-3 hours in. Typically I mix my salt 4 hours before a water change (5 gal), and use all of it.

Hello folks, TL;Dr; I am looking to switch salts and looking for suggestions. Currently using Red Sea Coral Pro (black bucket) and need to find a salt that mixes cleaner. This one leaves a brown residue that etches itself into the Home Depot buckets, and coats my heater and mixing powerheads...
