I know what controllers are but I thought it was pretty basic, u buy one and that's it, but after looking at some threads with aquarium cabinets, I saw that you guys have so many different systems and controllers and it's confusing me.
I went on saltwateraquarium.com and saw tens to hundreds of different products relating to aquarium controllers. There are sooo many I don't know what I need.
this isn't for a full on reef tank but a FOWLR with maybe some soft corals. But people recommended the controller because I'll be housing expensve fish.
Also about the cabinets, do you guys just DIY it from a regular cabinet or do you buy it from somewhere. Can I have some ideas if u did it yourself but if you bought it where did you buy it from?

- So, which ones do I actually need. (I've seen so much from the power bar to a variable light dimming and a flow control thingy and a leak detection kit... Just look here: https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/search.php?search_query=neptune§ion=product. What does each of them do?
- what does an Apex trident do? Do I need it
- And what is a Doser?
- What's the silver display for?
