Hi guys I have 2 reef Angel plus controllers. Both working great. One was on my 125 Gallon, which I sold a while back, and the other is on my 93 cube. These are similar in function to an Apex but are open source arduino controllers. I have a bunch of accessories, probes, dosers, auto top ups etc for them too. I have both programmed with the basics, reading temperatures and pH. I also have the 93 gallon programmed for dawn till dusk PWM controlled lighting (led). I have WiFi modules for both as well. What I don't have lately is the time to tinker with the programming. Both my WiFi modules were connecting fine up until a power outage a few weeks ago that reset my router, and I haven't had the time to go in and change the IP addresses etc. Is the Apex simpler to use? I'm thinking of just selling both of these and starting with the Apex if that makes sense. I enjoyed the process of programming and setting up the RA Plus units but between my son's diabetes regimen, work, and a new business startup, I don't have the time. I also don't want to shutdown my tank. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I know the Apex is a pricey system, but if it makes my life easier, I don't care. If I decide to make the switch, I'll itemize what I have and post in the classifieds, if anyone is interested.
