Controller with 2 Ph probes?

gstuman · 01/24/2007, 12:26 PM

What's my best bet for a controller with 2 Ph probes? I want to "control" my Ca Reactor with one probe and just monitor the tank Ph with the other. I would really like email alarms but it's not super necessary, I guess???.

I currently have a Pinpoint Ph controller but would like to integrate the whole thing into a Reef Controller because of my obsessive need to find the "elegant solution".

Anyhow I like the price of the AC Jr. but it looks like I need the AC III from Neptune Systems.

Also, will the Neptune Sytems DC8 contoll outlets have any problems powering up a Sunlight Supply dual HQI 250W MH ballast?

Thanks for any replies.

the aquacontroller three is the only unit that i know of that will run two ph probes.
The DC8 has no problem firing up my 4x250 HQI aquamedic lights.

Thanks,

I'll order the ACIII and I guess I'll add "broke" to my name too.
