    I am working on my control panel but still waiting on the breakout box and some float switches before I hook everything up.. I have the ALD Leak Detection Module and the PM2 module and the Breakout box is on the way from BRS. All my other controllers like my TUNZE pump controllers, my skimz and my Ecotech controller will all be installed on the back of my 10 gallon Nano stand where my apex control board will sit inside.

    Tank Info:
    120 Mixed Reef
    Apex Classic Controller
    ALD, PM2 Module and the Breakout Box
    Ecotech M1 pump
    Skimz 163 DC Montzer Series skimmer
    Custom sump / Refuge
    2 TUNZE Turbelle Nanostream 6055's
    2 AI Hydra TwentySix HD LED Fixtures
    Celestial C35W Maxspect Refuge Spotlight
    Aqua UV Ultraviolet Sterilizer 25w
    BRS Dual Media reactor
    Eshoops IV Master & Slave Doser
    Tunze 3155 Auto Top Off

    All the best,

    Can you expand on your display a little more? It doesn't look like an iPad, so I'm assuming just a normal Android tablet that you wall mounted? Are you plugged in on the back side or did you go with some type of PoE?

    Hello Spyder ...
    Sorry just missed this post.

    Is an Kindle Fire 7". Cost me 30€ in a Black Friday event. I build the frame out of wood scrap and it's connected to power permanently.

    All the best,
    Rui

    Revised apex control panel

    I made some slight adjustments to my Apex control panel! I added a Nest webcam on top of the cabinet and added an Amazon Fire for my main display.
    Still, have room to add a few modules if need to be! I decided to have the breakout box installed on the back of my tank since it's connected to a float switch which works with my Kalk reactor.

    IMG_1218 (1).jpgNot yet finished feeding all wires yet,as you can see. The panel is offset from wall with large holes in wall back of panel for excess wiring.

    Not 100% done but bought this shelf from Ikea and mounted the shelves at an angel and can't forget the trusty drill to make the holes.

    Other power supply was being warrantied, can't find my table in the moving boxes but it will get mounted on top when I do.

    Awesome setup. Keen to see the final. Like the large screen. Looking to do something similar.

    I finally switched to the 2016.

    Not as sleek as some of the others on here. But it will do for now.

    Still need to work on cleaning up the top off/WC in the Garage.

    I really need to redo mine but haven't quite thought through the solutions to what I don't like about it. Apex Lite that has been expanded on over the years:

    25b142824691227204a6e7dbb4a537c2.jpg

    Basically I think i need to make it narrower but taller and put in a piano hinge at the bottom of the mounting panel to make it easier to get at the back. Also want to better cover up the cable bundle that comes out the bottom of it before entering the stand.
