Alex jr vs apex full

Jetsetter57 · Jan 18, 2016

Can someone please school me on the huge difference between a full apex and a jr. Other than an eb4 vs an eb8 and just a temp probe rather than the ph probe too. Thanks.

Apex full has I/O ports for switches, also has dual ph probes if you plan to do calcium reactor, as well as variable ports that can control DIY leds or pumps....

So on small simple tanks a jr should be plenty. Just making sure I not missing something huge.

Yeah, you can always expand tho with modules or buy another eb8 for more outlets.

Awesome. I can't imagine how easy it is without a display though. And I kind of like the peace of mind in seeing it at home.

So in other words you can make a Jr. Into a full apex ?

Or is it similar to a reef keeper a jr only allows four modules or somethin like that unlike the elite gives you unlimited

Pretty much, the limit is you can only have 4 usb plugged in. Meaning you can add 4 modules...

Ok so same thing as the reef keeper lite ? Any more your better off getting the elite or full in this case

I think the full apex is worth the money imo

You use web browser to connect to apex. Like visiting a website.
