the problem i have with the deeeeluxe system is simply the amount of variables involved, if you cant afford the mercedes of dosers or super high tech controllers then the cheaper the equipment and the more variables of problems you could encounter.


right now worse case scenario for me is if my skimmer dies(happened 2 weeks ago) still not a big deal as my tank can run without a skimmer for a while

Same. I can deal with pretty much any issue without headache or breaking the bank.

That's how I like it.

Deluxe with RO I guess.

Typhoon RO/DI
Apex
PM Bullet 3 Skimmer
PM 622 Ca Reactor with Effluent Chamber
DIY Kalkwasser Reactor
Two Tunze Turbelle 6105 Streams
OM 4 Way
BRS Media Reactor with Carbon
Three Lumenmax 3s with Magnetic Ballasts
and some pumps

No carbon dosing, zeo, prodibio, ultra lith... whatever. Just frozen food, pellets, and mostly IO salt.

right now i do the simplr with ro at this time. my 50 does well thisway infacti find wheni do water changes the water coming out is clearer than the water going back in i have to look in to that maybe change my ro filters lol.

my 90 always also is simple i used to run ozone on it till my orp probe crapped out but even still im like you dump a few things in on a water change and forget it.

but.. i may get a lil more deluxe on my 180. i plan on a controller mainly for temp/lights/skimmer. and have purchased parts for a calcium reactor setup (if it fails ill just make my own soda and be done with it). may also concider a doser still unsure.

i really dont need the ability to have my controller system send me a text that a fish took a dump or issues here and there the only major addition will be to my home alarm system. i will be installing a water bug inside the tank stand as well as bottom edge in case of water leaks so that my home alarm will notify me that there is a major issue go home asap. concidering tank will be on main floor lol
