Yessir @Salt_Life I got it off Amazon. I actually got 2. 4 outlets are programmable even has USB ports you can hook a cam up to like I'm using one of mine. One of the best investments I've made honestly. All my pumps and skimmers and lights are on smart outlets and just go in and turn off and on.

I will admit I've spilled water on mine and it's kept on ticking. I did pop it open and left it in a bowl of rice, just in case.

can you buy just the power strip or do you need a controller as well?

Just powerstrip and download the smartlife app. You can fully automate 4 outlets on timers and even go in app and turn on or off whenever you like.
I liked this one the most because I didn't want to deal with Alexa or Siri or Google haha

You still have the capability to connect it to a smart device. I can control the plugs via the app or via a "smart device". My family knows I'm working on the tank when they hear me yelling to turn something on/off. "BLUE LIGHTS OFF!" "LAGOON OFF!" "F***ING ATO OFF!" LOL. Their great plugs for the price especially when you compare it to the Neptune.

If you like to tinker, you should look into Reefpi as an alternative to a Neptune, I bought a small raspberry pi (CPU/controller), loaded reefpi (software) and coupled with the smart plug it's basically a discounted Neptune. Maybe not as user-friendly initially but I'm able to control and get alerts for most things. There are few threads on here that talk about it.

Thinking about selling off one of my mom Toxic bounce colonies. She's making a cpl foot booger babies but wanna free up some room. Getting a little cramped right now without tables 3 and 4 ready.
For size refference the slots in my rack are 3/4" putting her between 4-5 inches fully inflated probably closer to 5" as she completely dwarfs the 3" disc she's on.

What yall think she's worth? Lol
@MERKEY @BighohoReef @Mr_Knightley or any one else for that matter.

The one on the right. She started as foot baby from mom on the left. Gonna have some huge bubbles on bubbles soon. They are also really starting to color up as well.

They are tough little guys!

I unfortunately have to take a ferry and drive a round trip of 4 hours to the fed ex facility :(

Living on an island I can't trust the drivers :(

I'm sure she will be ok :)

@MERKEY That is a drive, with Seattle traffic! Do you have to head down to the facility in SODO :(. Dang man we gotta figure that out for you @ReeferBlaine has a majority of his corals come to my place then we meet at Barrier, just to swap corals, shoot the breeze and check on the new stuff :)

I'm not too far from Mukilteo happy to make the drive I could walk on and meet you in Clinton :)

Absolutely let's do that sometime, we gotta meet up sooner than later ;Hilarious

The drive to the ferry on our side is the longest and if there is ferry traffic that makes it longer hahah

They have a fed ex sort facility that is Seattle's first drop of the planes in mukilteo before the packages get on the trucks. Only like 10min from ferry. But I'd much rather make a day out of it with you guys !

I know I'm pretty late on this, but wow those are huge! I would say at least $200-$300 for her, maybe more if she's a heavy producer. Honestly, I may be interested in trading for her if you are so inclined? I have a red/blue/green blotched yuma with a few babies as well as a red rhod with white bounces who is getting ready to split.
Good luck finding a home for her! She's a beauty.

Thank you for popping in sir! Merkey has spoken for momma just gotta figure out a way to get it done as she's kinda grown all over a couple plugs and so has a baby.
Plenty of babies though. Always down for future trade shoot me a dm with what you have:)
Yes they are super producers and kind of why I need to make room now. Super hardy been through my torture for a year anyway lol Easiest shroom I've ever fragged as well but don't really need to frag as she will drop a baby or 2 a month once settled in.
Hate to give her up but I got big big momma on the left still lol
 
Yo Yo Yo look who decided to join the show:) Was worried about temps but still 76 in the bag! And laid out all happy lol.
Shes mad right now because I took her out of bag. This ones gonna be crazy man I'm telling you! Almost identical params across the board:)
Great shipping as well @DonTavo27 the eagle has landed:)
