Now we just got to get past Reefapalooza California and I can get back to work on the tank.
Looks fantastic!
 
Excited to see the new build thread. Folllowed your old build back in the day lol Great job so far!
 
Reef & Ribs, definitely following this one.
 
Congrats! At least I knew it started with a T!

As soon as I heard about it I told my wife I needed to upgrade my Apex lol! I'm lucky that she supports the hobby.
Man, I’m with you. I like any product that makes my life easier. I only ever test for Alk but at that price, it’s nice to get the bonus of Calcium and Magnesium!

Where is the build thread on this

That's exactly how I explained it to my wife. The Trident(got it right this time Terrance!) tests for some the key things I need to know to grow happy and healthy corals. She understands easier isn't always lazier. That's why I have an Apex for monitoring and a DOS for AWC. She just asks how soon do we have to get one. Thankfully, not right away. I need my second light first!

Glad to see you getting a build together again. Pretty sure you've offered me some advice in the past, so thanks again for that.

The nice thing is that, while those two might not change much when things are going right, a regular gut check on them is great in case there is a doser issue, out of 2-part, not enough (too much) re-mag in the reactor, etc.

Much deserved Terence. Now to get my hands on one!
No kidding - you and everyone else - I still do not have the working prototype of the full Trident at home - the OG Alk monitor from Jim has been running for about a year now on my home tank. I am like a crack addict. Every time I get a little low on reagent I get the shakes and have to send off an urgent message to Jim-my-dealer to send me out some more - like this bottle I just got today that should last me about four months or so.

Greg, I went back through and looked but couldn't find it. What are the dimensions on your new 250g tank?
