My Digital Aquatics order came in this afternoon, total customs charge of $20.17. Its all hooked up and running already.

Thats not bad at all for customs.!

Definitely not bad at all, especially since my order came to just shy of $400USD. The shipping was right quick too, purchased in the afternoon on the 29th, and here by the 6th!

I'm having issues getting the RSS feed (which is what you see above in the screen shot) to come up. I think we have router issues, or its possible one of the dogs tripped on the temporary cord after we left the hosue this morning. I was really looking forwards to logging in this morning to see all the graphs!

I'm going to pretend that iPhone capture didn't just make me giddy. I chose to keep it simple and relatively LOW-TECH. Don't force me to get a controller after all! Man that's sweet. So it's just a plain ole RSS feed? Website could absorb it too...

I like how it keeps track of your Pods. That is a really amazing sensor!

I'm still learning about it, but so far I've got the online graphing function working. I just need some more time to set up the alarm system and link it to my phone.

So far the only things I need that aren't available are a dKH/alkalinity probe, and Calcium probe. Then everything would be perfect.

If you don't mind sharing, where did you buy your controller?

Great job on the tank. I really like minimalistic live rock approach to aquascaping.

The controller came directly from Digital Aquatics (digitalaquatics.com), I had originally purchased the RKE when it first came out via pre-orders, and then this last order was really just add ons, probes, the net module, etc.

Some quick updates;
- Greyhound claim for the skimmer is STILL ongoing...
- Winterizing of the house is almost complete, which means its almost tank time again!
- I got put on notice at work, which really just means I'm getting laid off in 30-ish days unless there is some miracle, and they renew my contract (highly unlikely).
