What controller is the best and why? The reefkeeper2. the 1st reefkeeper, aquacontoller jr, and the reg aquacontroller? Thanks!
 
Aquatronica, Aquacontroller3, Reefkeeper3, Aquacontroller Jr, Reefkeeper2, and I wouldn't use any of the ones older than that, since most use X10 and that's a PITA that can cause problems.
 
Reefwreak a reefkeeper 1 would be a definite no? Do any have an advantage over the others? And has anyone had good or bad experiences with any of these controllers that I should take into consideration?
 
I have the AquaController Jr and the AquaController 3 Pro, I have been messing around with the controller for days and the features are awesome. I suggest if you really want to monitor AND control important parameters in your tank get the AquaController 3 Pro - it can be pricey, but really worth it and a bit cheaper than aquatronica. If you just want to moniter pH and temp with many other features get the AquaController Jr combo.

I personally have not......but I know Todd at Cherry Corals and he swears by them(prob because he sells them ;). His setup is pretty crazy, and has about every trinket you can imagine. I have seen it in action, and the lighting options with this thing are SICK, I never seen the colors he had going. I was soo close to getting one from someone here on RC, but i was informed that it was fried and passed on it, and im still in the market for something.

I was going to possibly consider the RKE but it seems like its taking DA forever to get that thing launched.
 
Some one here on Rccuurently has a Profilux for sale with tons of upgrades. But he's selling it for $1500. A bit more than what I wanted to spend. I was checking out the RKE as well. But just like VivaBorg said its taking forever for it to come out!

In the mean time, if you're interested in more about controllers, check out www.aquariumcontrollers.com and it has an excel spreadsheet with most if not all controllers listed and their features and prices listed and compared.

Hey Erick I've spoken o a guy out there regarding some issues please do email them and try to contact them since they do have a "gringo" over there that did help me a lot with my interface problems. He even set a conference call with his software developer. HTH his name simply escapes me.
