Waiting a long time for this since it was announced. Back view Installation was easy. Firstly, update your Apex OS. On Mobius, Create a new Tank (in my case, i call it MXM). Add MXM device to this tank. Unassociate devices from other tanks in Mobius. Then add to this "MXM" tank. Then go back to Apex to adjust the device. Absolutely loving the control. Next is to integrate the other wavemakers/pumps with feeding events and buttons to trigger feed mode.

Used to have lots of bubble tip anemones in the tank but they tended to split quite often. The need to reach the babies and peel them off was too much of a hassle. In any case, this is an old photo from many many years ago. Saw many nice anemones being sold recently - red/purple/green haddoni carpets. And others with fancyy names such as black widow, sunburst, acid rain etc. Hesitated for a while as there was a need to move a lot of corals around to create enough space for an anemone. And also the risk and fear of it not liking the intended location. Finally added a haddoni carpet a few weeks ago. So far it has stayed put in the rock structure I put together from a couple of spare rocks lying around. Expoxied a small fist sized structure for the foot to sit in. This porcelein crab moved house from its original rock flower anemone (75cm away) to the carpet anemone one night. Big home upgrade indeed.

Tested my water parameters manually over the weekend as a double check against the auto testers. Ca 400 Mg 1440 KH 8.9 Phosphate (Hanna) : 0.26ppm Nitrate : Based on color on Salifert test kit, estimate ~ 15ppm Potassium : Didn't test. Test kit expired.

This is the BLADE light setting I loaned a thermal sensor. At full power, the external hottest part (the heat sink) is only 41degC During the initial days of running the new light configuration, I put the Apex Neptune's PMK into use. The measurement from Apex's PMK reads very close to the Apogee MQ510 PAR meter. Apex : 17 vs Apogee 175. Close enough Current tank PAR readings around 3pm
