I would guess that the Apex could actually do anything the profilux can but getting there would not be as easy. Profilux is more plug and play for the most part, Apex can require a little more advanced programming and setup from what I understand. In the end you just pick the controller that does what you want for the money you're willing to spend. Pretty sure they can all do what's needed, how you get there is usually the difference. |

![]() But.......if your any good at coding, this controller has more features than Apex.

![]() I think they're both the same that way. When I was choosing a controller, I figured out what I was going to need. While the Profilux had a couple of things easier to do, I didn't need that functionality, and while my LFS was really cutting the cost he was going to give it to me for, the Apex was still a lot less and fit my needs better. With Tunze and AI, the native support worked well. I also didn't want the Profilux display, I like the smaller Apex better, again, for my needs. Quality has been great, vendor and peer support is amazing, and I'm glad I went the direction I did. I think both probably have limitations(maybe??), but for most users, they're likely way beyond what you typically need anyway.

![]() No no, I like the color, just not spending money for color. I also use my laptop for all access, so the smaller display mounted to the side of my canopy worked better.

![]() I am starting to really like my apex as well .
Slowly programming it to do everything i want . I too use my computer for doing most things throught the apex . Except the display is really nice to see the temp and ph , and really nice to trigger a feed mode cycle . Just walk up push 1 button and your powerheads turn off ! its great definitely go with an apex

![]() I bought a Profilux but every time I go to use it I wish that I had gotten an Apex.. Thankfully I don't actually have to use my Profilux very often. Still, wish I had an Apex.

![]() I have no idea how you did your price comparaison but the RA with a temp probe, PH, a salinity module, 2 power bars of 8 outlets and wifi is 577 $ not 889$!! that's still 357$ less than the Apex package.
The temp, ph and ATO come STANDARD with the basic model at 219$. All you need to add is the salinity module and the wifi adapter and the second power bars to get a total of 16 outlets. I am going to get the ORP as my salinity don't vary with the ATO, and my controller is still going to cost me just 430$ for temp, ph, orp, ATO, wifi and 8 outlets. That's about half the Apex price for these options. Quote:
