I think you were mistaken when setting the ph hysterisis. You put .30, which means you will swing 6.7 - to 6.4. I think you want 0.03. :) Thanks for the video!

@ReefDudes 3 жыл бұрын

i just checked the ghl graph and its goes from 6.7 > 6.86

@MrHCMSS 3 жыл бұрын

Yes. Hysteresis of 0.3 means a 0.15 swing either side of the nominal value.

Hey Dev, I’d love to see you do a video on your kalk reactor and how you programmed the coding.

Not sure if I showed that in the last kalk one or not. If not I can share that

Sup Dudes good work as usual. I do think you should always always have a light on when you shoot video under any tank. OG

I agree ( was thinking the same thing when editing!)

@@ReefDudes Yea bro it just adds to the quality. Even when you tour other peoples tanks. Its a must lol!! If you dont mind me adding, even when your sitting in front of the tank doing a general shot a nice broadcast light to brighten up the overall shot will just add to your quality vids. OG

I think a calcium reactor will be the next big upgrade. Maybe next year though. I forgot how cool this reactor looks.

How you like the GHL P4, it seems kind of slow or is the just wifi connection speed? How you do you like it compared to the Apex, especially for day to day use as well as advance use like setting up a CalRx?

@ReefDudes 3 жыл бұрын

Apex interface is more snappy than Ghl. Apex uses aws where as Ghl serves it up directly. I was going out to the Internet then back in to it rather then connecting local which is why it was a bit slower. They both have their pro / cons so it’s a toss up

@jasony816 3 жыл бұрын

What is aws? Yeah would you ever do a long term review of both since you have used both on your systems compared to others that just “test” it and give their opinion but no real long term use.
