    Remote

    So, I do all of my mixing for water changes in my garage. Carry buckets in the house and dump it into the tank. Does Neptune make a Remote module that can be put in the garage that’s wireless and be hooked up to a pump to pump the water to the tank?

    Not wirelessly. My mixing station is in the garage, about 30 feet from my aquarium. I ran a 30' AquaBus cable through the wall out to the garage, and connected it to a Neptune DOS for auto water changes through 1/4" tubing, and to a EB4 to power the mixing pump. I also run my ATO from the garage with a FMM module & PMUP. You can get AquaBus cables up to 125 feet long at https://www.usbfirewire.com/parts/rr-apex-xx.html. I can also hook up a 1" hose to the pump if I need to do a large water change.

    That’s a very nice set up. I didn’t realize you get a Aquabus cables that long. I put 2 inch conduit through my wall under the house and into the garage so that I can push hoses and cables through. My auto top off water is gravity fed but I wanted to pump the salt water. Thanks a lot for the pictures and the suggestions, it helps quite a bit.
