I think the idea is cool but at 7-900 up front and 500 a year for discs @ the discounted pricing which im sure are both in USD. It's not a realistic purchase for a lot of people where a $50-70 probe that lasts any length of time I'd buy them for sure.

An auto feeder that dispenses frozen food. I've seen a few interesting DIY jobs involving mini fridges but nothing even remotely compact.
Plasma lighting in the 14K spectrum. I'll put my hand up too for the Alkalinity monitor.

The kicker with these units though is that to get accurate measurements they sometimes need to be paired with a pH probe. The potential (i.e. voltage) of an electrode shifts 0.059V per decade (meaning one pH unit, such as if the pH shifts from 7 to 8). Doesn't sound like much but once that error gets factored in, your measurement could swing wildly with pH shifts throughout the day, talk additions, etc. So, it can be done but it hit always going to be cheap. |

second the frozen food feeder
an adjustable sump system where you can increase or decrease size of the chambers with sliders so you can add or remove equipment and make space accordingly

A fitration system that takes in your dirty tank water and spits out water as clean as the day you made it. The filter would remove all bad items but leave the salt and all trace elements. A true sea water purification system that is easy to use.
It would remove all algae, nitrate, phosphate, pests (ich) and just return water that only had the good stuff left in it. |

But yeah, if you could live monitor or even hourly monitor cal and alk even just those two would be immensely helpful. |

Mindstream claims to have it figured out, but they are lacking funding badly since a serious failure in their Kickstarter program. |

I was doing some reading tonight and it seems it should be fairly straight forward to make a carbonate selective electrode (provided I can synthesize a molecular tweezer ). In fact, I think I could put pH, Calc, Alk and Nitrate all on the same electrode. |
