Just love the wireless Hub! i can now monitor my tank using my Laptop, Iphone and even on my galaxy note! i can even switch on/off ALL my equipments that are hooked up to the Relay Hub! I can switch On/Off my lights while viewing my tank comfortably from my couch! Here's how the control interface on Galaxy Note look like!

Some updates on my most recent project! 2 years back, i chanced upon this great product that is not so well-know in the asian reefing scene. I purchased the basic package which consist of: 1) Reef Angel Controller (Head Unit) 2) 1 x Temperature Probe 3) Relay Hub ( Power Bar- 8 Sockets ) 4) pH Probe 5) 2 x Float Switch This setup which controls/monitor the basic function/parameters of my reef, served me for 2 years. This is what it does: 1) Temperature monitor and control function: It cuts off my lighting unit and wave makers should chiller decide to fail and the temerature rises to-- in my case 30 Degree Celsious 2) Controls the reef's lighting function : Daylight (2pm-9pm), Artinic (12pm-2pm, 9pm-11pm), Moonlights (9pm-2pm) 3) pH Controller : I do not run Calcium Reactor, therefore my usage is only to monitor. 4) Float Switch : not utilised as ATO is not in my setup In a short span of 2 years, tons of development and improvements have been made to this product by the community of this "open-source", programmable controller. (which is the main reason why I loved this product.) These are the few add-ons that I've recently acquired: 1) Dosing Pumps 2) Wireless Attachment 3) RF Expansion module (Controls my MP10 and Radion--which I plan to add-on ) 4) Salinity Hub w/ Probe Here is how it looks it all like- together!

Recently been stocking up my tank with sps bit by bit. Grew confident after the few frags that I acquired is doing well with growth spotted. However coloration can be still improved. Contemplating to 1)remove my sand bed to bare bottom 2)reduce carbon dosing? 3) Dose AA 4)Feed Sps with More food example Phytoplankton? Note I change water frequently say 3 days 20%. I would also like to DIY a mini fridge to dose 5 in 1 coral food. Anyone knows where to buy those small fridge?

Btw I also have similar experience with LRs covered with nuisance Algae. I bought some dead rocks as I thought dead rocks will ease me the problem of unwanted pests. Put it into my 24g and in a matter of days it was full of algae! Took it out placed it into a tub fill it with fresh mixed Salt water cover it total darkness. Every week I will take it out give it a good brush and change 100% water..... After 2-3 months I gave up algea wins !! Lol !

I suggest heeding the advise of fellow reefers, I learn a painful lesson years ago when I first started. Spend lots of money and can't keep a happy lively tank. Listen and enjoy the hobby if not my guess is that you will give up soon as the experience is not enjoyable. Cheers
