I'm looking for a controller I see a few people have reef keeper controllers any reviews and do people like it better then apex I just don't have apex money lol thanks guys
I had a reef keeper on my 75 and had no complaints with it. It worked good and I ran most of my equipment on it. I have an apex now and consider it an upgrade to the reef keeper, but if you don't have the apex money lol then in my opinion it's a decent controller. Hope this helps.
The reef keeper is still with the 75 gallon setup but I upgraded tanks to a 180 and the apex was a gift from my better half. I do think that the apex is a better controller overall but if it's not in your budget than the reef keeper isn't a bad choice, at least it worked well for me.
I'd start with deciding what you want the controller to do, I have a RK lite on my QT tank and works perfectly for what I want it to do; lights and temp. On the display I have the Apex because I'm controlling my LEDs ramp up/down, temps, lunar cycle, co2, top off and emailing me when when needed.
I have the Apex couldn't be happier, if its not in your budget its understandable hey its an expensive hobby but there are people on this site selling it for way less than it cost. I suggest just save up a little and go for the better one, youll end up happy in the end.
im probably going down the RK route but if you really want an Apex but dont have Apex money, talk to Reef Lobster he will do a free consultation with you and can help out
