Parker's 265 Build - Thread Retired

[Parker]

Haven't had much to report these days.. the summer has kept me pretty busy. I did get my Apex ordered and delivered - With UPS as the transit company It's a wonder the thing showed up at all, but that's another story.

The Apex is a pretty cool unit, I'm just diving into the programing of this thing.. If I get the code right I might be able to get this thing to bring me a beer! I have two more EB8's on order, I'll have to wait for those to arrive before I can put this thing to use.

Anyway, here's a pic, I know it's not a true update unless there's a picture! Sorry for being so blurry, I used my cell phone.

Oh sweet... you will have to give us a good review of the new apex! That's what I'm thinking of going with on my big tank build.

Oh no.

One of the three...posting updates! I am so feeling the pressure right now.

Slick looking unit there I really like how that looks.

So the water you have in the tank is SALT water? If it's not I'd say I'm keeping up just fine =)

Ha! Your safe, it's only fresh water, well actually it's empty now so I've taken a step backwards.

Ooooohhh

I've had fw in mine for a couple months off and on. My goal is mold in the house before the reef!

Who are the "three" you speak of? or i guess, who are the other 2 of 3?...

Just because we all have pretty slow builds.. we post an update to our threads every couple months or so.... we aren't in a race.

Small update,

Got my controller mounted up and plugged in. I toyed with having the EB8's on the front panel but I decided to put them behind to keep everything looking a little neater.

Here's what it looks like behind the scenes of the electrical cabinet.

The back of the front panel:


EB8 on the right hand side, I need to get two more in there yet.


I put a bulkhead in the cabinet for the PH/ORP/ Temp probes to pass through:
