Hey reefers - do any of you use either of the products in title? I have an apex classic (wasn't called the classic when I got it though LOL) and have been looking at these two units. Looks like if I want to use the trident I will need to replace my apex....fun....to the 2016 model (current generation). That puts me at around 499 on the low end. Add in the trident and I'm looking at $1100 + tax and shipping + $10000 per our of my precious time to set up a new apex LOL. I also see that the reagents are hard to come by ( I know I know Covid...) but alternatively are easier to use.
On the flip side I see that the Alkatronic doesn't require me to purchase a new apex but does have a higher price tag ($899). from watching videos I see I can "monitor" my alk from my apex but not control it. Only the Alkatronic can do that with its internal dosing pump.
So.....all that to ask these questions. Of those that use either of these units which did you go with and why? what would you do differently? is it worth it?
Added a poll to make it more "fun"
Thanks!
