AbelR1975 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I use Aquarimate. It's a little pricey, but a decent app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpb Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Apex. For testing parameters with test kits I don't log them, just make a mental note to ensure they're not fluctuating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I've been using Aquatic Log, and a reef angel. Aquatic log can poll the reef angel for probe readings and that gets recorded alongside my notes on dosing, feeding, and testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timfish Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I don't use controllers but the functions where they call if there are problems are a tempting reason for their use. I like redundancy so I would not have a controller setup where if it failed I would loose a critical function which would crash the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvrEnuf Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I just keep a spreadsheet in google drive. I've been meaning to print a hard copy so I don't have to pull up the website every other day; but those are first world problems if I've ever heard 'em!

Christian Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Well I think I'll start one for my new 140 gallon and add a controler eventually. But I think it will be good to have on a sps tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvrEnuf Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Be carefull with controllers, some need a computer hooked up 24/7 to record data. Otherwise, it's just a display on the screen. For example, I run a reefkeeper but do not keep a computer hooked up full time. I enter the PH and temp from the screen onto my spreadsheet every day.
