    Need clarification on dual tank support

    Figured I would ask this to you Apex gurus
    my main display is in the kitchen of my home utilizing the apex classic to monitor and control my tank.
    what I plan to do is add an EB8 and PM2 to my sons tank in his room so that my apex can monitor his reef while we are away.

    Other than the EB8 and PM2 for temp probe / Ph probe I would need to have a aqua bus cable long enough to run up the wall, through my attic and down my sons wall to his tank correct ?

    Am I missing anything with this plan ?
    thanks for you time.

    I have 5 separate systems running on my Apex. It's no big deal to Apex.

    Yes you need the aquabus cable, I got mine from monoprice.com. You might want a breakout box as well if you can do ATO or water changes.

    Thanks for the reply and information for the cable.
    i have a mini smart auto top off for his system though I have been exploring things in the apex world to install on my tank and my sons as well.
    just wanted to make sure I was planning this correctly and not missing something important to make this work, I'm an apex newb
