    APEX Saved My Butt

    I did some routine maintenance today on my 45 Gallon Freshwater Planted Aquarium and had everything back together and running properly. About an hour later I was out of the house running errands when I got a leak detection text warning from my APEX 2016. I thought that perhaps it was just some water that I had failed to cleanup during the maintenance but I decided to head back home and investigate. It turns out that my external filter canister sprung a leak. Fortunately there was only a very small pool of water underneath the aquarium as thankfully my APEX immediately shut off the filter, otherwise it would have been an absolute disaster. If this had happened a year ago before I purchased the APEX, my filter would have drained my Aquarium in about ten minutes not only probably killing all of my fish friends but this Aquarium is located upstairs so there would have been extensive water damage to both 1st and 2nd floors.....

    Thanks to everyone at Neptune Systems for this awesome piece of technology and for all of you on this forum who helped me with setup and programing questions...…

    Automation is an amazing thing. I feel bad for all the old school reefers 20 years ago before automation was a thing.
