Aquariumspecialty.com Cerebra stand By Elder1945

Elder1945 · Nov 3, 2016

Well I am back at it with the help from Scott at aquariumspecialty.com. I will be building a custom Stand/ Mounting solution for the Vertex Cerebra for this amazing tank!

I will be documenting the whole build exclusively on R2R so stay tuned.

I hope to have a rough idea in the next 2 weeks to share (3d renderings) and we can go from there.

This will be a over the top build like always (I had a budget but looks like I will be over

). This will also help me design and build the mounting solution on my newest build!

are those radion mounts available for purchase

AquariumSpecialty · Nov 3, 2016

We get asked that fairly often. This is a one-of-a-kind acrylic arm. For a while we offered BioTek Marine single mounting arms on our website. They were just under $200.00 per arm but our fabricator went MIA. I wish we still had them as they were gaining popularity even as Ecotech Marine was coming out with the less expensive RMS mounts.

I am Back! I have a reno at my place that is taking a lot longer then I thought but now I can start into this.

First Idea...

Thank you,

Nice - now if there only more Cerebras to buy,.

Elder1945 · Jan 19, 2017

lol... yes I had a hard time getting mine

Aquarium Specialty had them in stock

AquariumSpecialty · Jan 21, 2017

We have 2 Cerebra controllers available.

BIGGUN · Jan 22, 2017

Are these returned Beta units?

AquariumSpecialty · Jan 22, 2017

Oh, Okay.
I didn't know they released any except for the Beta sale price models.

Thanks

Can the Cerebra control Radions like the Apex can with the WXM module?

BIGGUN · Jan 22, 2017

currently no they can't. Vertex has supposedly talked to Ecotech and got the input that if there was enough of a demand from their customers they would work with Vertex to get connectivity.

Thank you! I think that's the deal breaker for me when it comes to selecting the system for my parent's new build. I don't want to be working in Reef Link and Cerebra.

This stand is going to be really nice though!

BIGGUN · Jan 23, 2017

They are making some major cerebra announcement by Friday. Maybe it will include compatibility plans.

Elder1945 · Jan 31, 2017

Here is the updated version that I am making right now! This time I will be video taping the whole build if anyone is interested.

Here is my YouTube channel that I will be posting on.

I have quite a few builds backed up at this point and still have my RedSea Reefer to do

. So in theory there will be a lot of content...

When I start uploading videos I will start a new thread on it.

I hope to have the video out this weekend but learning how to edit is a interesting process.

I cant wait to share this build with everyone!

Hello from Calgary

Just read something about the Cerebra , looks like there making everything smaller now

Just a FYI

Cheers

Wayner · Jan 31, 2017

By the way I forgot to mention, I really like the design, is this specifically for the cerebra or is there room for other stuff like powerhead controllers etc

Thanks
