Why isn't there more buzz about Reef Bot?

[Tft12]

I hear a lot of buzz about the coming Trident and about the possible someday arrival of the Mindstream, why isn't there much buzz about the already present Reef Bot by Reef Kinetics?

Does it not work well? For the price, if it's able to do all the things it's intended to do, it seems like people should be really excited about it.

Oops. I thought it was already released but now I'm unsure. Anyway, same question still.

Is it out yet? At $800 it’s not really priced for mass consumption IMO.

It was supposed to be out in July. But now they say it’s been delayed a couple of months due to the mass production.

looks interesting. that magnetic stirrer was cracking me up though when it would drown him out while speaking.
that price point isn't for the masses though.

From what I understand API only option for nitrate and phosphate

For folks using the API test kit, are you happy with the accuracy of nitrate and phosphate kits?

I think most complaints regarding API is the difficulty discerning minor variances in the color comparative. I would assume automating the reading would eliminate that concern.

Hello,

We also support other brands.
We will be listing what’s compatible soon.

Happy Reefing!

We had this solved with a smaller and quieter stirrer!

If this comes out around the same time the trident finally gets released Neptune might be in trouble.

 

[Zaireguy]

I think steven is right alot of people might turn to given this a second look

Saying $800 is not for the masses but APEX is $800 + likely $600+ for triden add-on [emoji848].

I’m waiting for the Seneye Alk monitor myself [emoji28]

Awesome product. Just a little bulky for my taste. I have my sump and fuge in basement along with rodi and 2 water storage containers. I’m still trying to figure out where I would place this

Any idea how the reefbot deals with the non liquid part of the test kits?

It only can use liquid only test kits
