Andrew,

Strictly my opinion here....Many reefers have been asking Neptune for a few years to put out an upgraded controller with a second pH probe (to control a calcium reactor). After 2+ years of waiting for the AC3 which was just released...no second probe. I'm not expecting them to jump off the dime to integrate a brand new probe.

Now this new Aquatronics controller from Italy seems to have some promise...very expandable, unlimited number of probes..etc. But we don't know much about it yet and not sure if it could handle a Ca probe.

Quite honestly, if this probe turns out to be worth it, every Neptune owner (including myself) will be sending emails to them requesting integration...But I have no expectations of that happening quickly. So if his probe is worth anything, I'll be buying a stand alone unit to sit next to my Aquacontroller.
