The Apex is the Neptune system?

I've been doing research on this topic as well.

The Neptune Apex is what I am leaning towards because of the iPhone capability.

I am(was) seriously considering the Reefkeeper Elite. For less money you get a couple of probes a well. You can also check tank status on the web but from my understanding, not easily through the iPhone . (I think the graphs are in flash).

The modules also seem cheaper with the Reefkeeper compared to the Apex.

Then there is the business of Apex Lite Vs Apex.

I believe the only difference between the two is that the lite doesn't have the ability to control dimable ballast or vary the speed of certain power heads.

I wish there was a chart somewhere.
