    controller question

    Ok, so far in my search i havent been able to find what im looking for. I want a controller for my 54 corner tank that will monitor salinity (most important) temperature and Ph. ORP and other such things at this point are nice but not a must. the bioptus looks nice but starting at about 1800 for the base model its just not realistic. the neptune is probably the frontrunner in my mind but it doesnt do salinity at least in the info i have been able to find. the neptune also has the RJ45 ethernet jack and aquanotes software to back it up. any one have any other suggestions or experience with any of these. pros cons or otherwise?

    Biomatix is state of the art and will do everything you are talking about but it will cost more than your entire tank so for all practical purposes it's out of the question.

    Re: controller question

    Never said they were cheap! ;) I have a couple friends that are using them, so far they are still in love with it. I have been thinking of adding one myself, but my "control" center is in the basement, and tank is upstairs, making it tough to get all the power cords in the same place.
