We will get the monitors shipped out to you shortly! Thank you again for everyone in watching the video, participating in the giveaway, and thank you again to Kactoily for providing the products! See you all next video!
Damn I did not win😢 That was gonna be my 1st “controller” too. I tell everyone I subscribe to the Jake Adams method of “I am the controller” but in reality If I had moneys I would totally have an Hydros or Apex. Looking into one of these especially with the sweet 15% off we get from you. Oh well there is always next time. Big time props for giving away such cool new products to help get the word out. You are an old school beacon for us dude. Good or bad you show it real. You, fragbox, reef dudes, and of course Tidal Gardens are all the salt TH-camrs I need in my life. Had to drop RB when they shafted Evan so just y’all now. Keep the videos coming brother!!
I think it great to see more competition in the reef aquarium market. This helps to keep companies in check when it comes to price and quality. Thanks for the review!
After watching your video I bought one, took 2 weeks to turn of here in England. Had it running for a few days and it's working fine. For less than £100 you can't go wrong
This is an amazing product!! Going to have to for sure give it a try and it’s within perfect range for price. Really a game changer if you personally ask me. Not just for the business but for the hobby. Man we have never had anything control wise this cheap!! Thank you!!
Thank you very much for what you have prepared for this video! We communicated for two months about the monitor itself and what value it can provide to your followers. I really appreciate your seriousness and everything you did for this channel and yor followers! You are the best TH-camr and best partner!
I’m really glad you did a review on this product! I see stuff like this but these “big reefing “ companies have us fooled ! They act like they are the only ones who can make a product that works and we have gotten so used to their high prices that anything cheaper we can’t believe it works ! Thanks again man!
I love your approach to making content. It's refreshing and gives you the feel that you just hanging out chatting. This monitor has definitely peaked my interest. Great review.
Just wanted to know you were one of the first people I watched who really beloved I could have my own tank. I’ve had my reef tank running for 8 years now and I couldn’t imagine not having it thank you!
I quite enjoyed the little trip through your tank as you were giving your review. Love your videos, my favorite are the ones from waaayyyy back. The more simple ones that were more about the corals and your tanks and trips to the fish stores. I dont really like the product ones very much. But i do appreciate honest reviews i guess. For me though... its about that little world inside that tank. The fish and the corals. Thanks for keeping it up so long. I have watched almost every video. Love them!
I must say first I have spent a lot of time watching your videos. I found you like two weeks ago and have enjoyed watching the mistakes, failures and the recovery that you go through. Not a lot of the videos out there show the wrong side of this hobby or how exactly they handled them. Also had never seen a Yasha Goby until your pairing video. Currently I use a mix of test kits for monitoring and testing and am still learning how to deal with issues. I am old school from before all the bacteria bottles, dry rock, live sand, led lights etc., so its definitely been a learning curve since restarting the hobby. Looking forward to more of your videos.
I’ve been following you for years to include my own evolution to bigger tanks. Your videos and troubleshooting had helped me work through multiple issues with reefing . Thanks again and keep up the great content.
Glad to see more options for monitoring tanks . Not everyone can afford a apex or pay to do a api test often. I currently cant grow anything in my 50g but in my fluval evol I see everything thriving. So I hope to solve this soon .
I didn't even know this was an option on the market, I've been around since you had the cube and have enjoyed all your videos showing the progress until now. Keep it up!
As always, great video. You’re one of the best out there. I especially appreciate how you’re always looking to learn more and you don’t pretend to be an expert. You’re as real as it gets. Keep up the good work!
I’ve been following and watching this channel for quite sometime. I really enjoyed the unboxing. Can we get more of these? Thanks for being such a help in the reefing community.
Thank you for the info! Nothing better than a plug-in-play unit…a great starter unit for a beginner or an accurate backup for an experienced Reefer. Keep the videos coming…love the channel!!!
I always look forward to your vids coming out. You've been a huge inspiration for my reefing journey, starting with my own 10g budget reef up to the 150g I'm just getting started. Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to document your reefing experiences.
I always enjoyed watching your videos. It's very nice to see an affordable aquarium monitor on the market. I'm looking forward to watching another video update on the long-term use of this aquarium monitor.
This would make anyone’s life easier and you can enjoy your tank with less worries. I started reefing because of your budget tank video. Been going strong ever since. Still learning with you on this journey. Thanks for all the videos.
Thanks for the no nonsense review! Ive been looking into different salinity probes but have heard that they really arent that accurate. Not to mention I already have a hydros which does not (currently) have a salinity monitor option. This would be pretty useful to let you know when something like your auto top off has gone on the fritz!
Would be nice to have that monitor for my tank has going through my final school exams leaves vey little time to test water quality. So yeah with barely any money going into my tank it would be nice to know quickly that things are going alright! Your content has helped me understand how to do reefing and I've been watching you for the past 4-5 years.
I am very interested in this device for my SPS Reef, wish I would have seen video sooner but life gets in the way. Review is very honest and helpful thanks again.
The more options available in the reef keeping hobby the better in my opinion. While most people would love to have the best of everything. A large portion of people simply don't have the financial means to purchase all these gadgets, especially monitoring equipment. I personally like to have options, that work for my budget.
I’m very interested in this product. The cost and intimidating tech factor that some of these more expensive name brand monitors have on newer and more budget conscious reefers really keeps a large portion of the community out of monitoring their aquarium. This could help some reefers who want to dip their toe in monitoring without the insane price tag.
Love the video, as always! I always feel like I learn something and love to watch your tanks grow. You've been a huge inspiration to my reefing journey. The giveaways are a great idea to help out your viewers too
Looks like a super helpful tool, especially for beginners. Can see this being very useful and budget friendly when starting a tank and want to focus expenses on other items. Great video!
Here’s my comment, my roll of the dice, idk what to say but I love your videos and your tanks, specifically the mangrove tank. That inspired me the most and now I have my own 20g that’s only 3 months old. Sticking with softies other than a Duncan I have. Thanks for all you do for the hobby.
Thank you for the inspiration on starting this hobby. I have been in the hobby for over a year now and have been really lucky with everything and learned a lot of skills and knowledge about reef keeping. Now I’m deep into it as everything starts to get expensive as my appetite grows for the rare and coolest corals.
Honestly it seems like a really cool product, all the ones I have seen seem to have been overly complicated and difficult to circumnavigate, but this one feels like even I could figure out. 🤷♂️
Thanks for this feedback on a product as such. I was planning on buying the Hannah monitor but this one has now been one I will buy instead especially a true reefer like yourself being pleasantly happy with this and for $99 this is a steal. The tank looks amazing by the way.
Currently in the middle of setting up a 40 breeder frag tank. In the middle of 3d printing a overflow box because I'm trying to stay budget friendly. Might look into this after the set up. Thanks for the video. Love the tanks
Hey! Just wanted to say a massive thanks for all these incredible reefing videos you're putting out. It's clear you put a lot of time and effort into them, and trust me, it doesn't go unnoticed. Your passion for this is infectious and I've learned so much - it's like having a friend guide me through the world of reefing. Really looking forward to your future content. You're doing an awesome job - keep up the great work! Cheers, Eric
Always exciting to see a new vid uploaded! This new device might be a game changer for those that want to measure pH, salinity and temp without spending a lot of money

Awesome, I’m gunna try it
I think it great to see more competition in the reef aquarium market. This helps to keep companies in check when it comes to price and quality. Thanks for the review!
I agree. More competition is always better for the consumer not only for price but on features
After watching your video I bought one, took 2 weeks to turn of here in England. Had it running for a few days and it's working fine. For less than £100 you can't go wrong
This is so cool! I have been waiting for some cheaper aquarium monitors to come on the market that actually work!
This is an amazing product!! Going to have to for sure give it a try and it’s within perfect range for price. Really a game changer if you personally ask me. Not just for the business but for the hobby. Man we have never had anything control wise this cheap!! Thank you!!
Thanks for keeping an eye out for products and companies like this!!
Oh love things that make the reef life a bit easier thanks for the opportunity. :))
Thank you very much for what you have prepared for this video!

Love the videos! I think it’s great to have some sort of multi monitor for this price point.
I've been watching you now for a while. Love all the advice and all your reefing adventures. Keep up the good work and good videos.

Very cool. It’s the right price and covers several parameters that aren’t covered by other cheap monitors.
I must say first I have spent a lot of time watching your videos. I found you like two weeks ago and have enjoyed watching the mistakes, failures and the recovery that you go through. Not a lot of the videos out there show the wrong side of this hobby or how exactly they handled them. Also had never seen a Yasha Goby until your pairing video.

Excellent work! I really appreciate the research and work you put into videos.
Glad to see you have kept reefing and even more so, glad to see the videos are still going!
Your channel is awesome! Your passion for reefs is contagious, and I'm learning a lot. Keep up the great work!

Looks like a potentially helpful tool and easy to use as well! Definitely something to consider!
Thanks for the review. I didn’t know something like this was available at such a cheap price. Thanks again

I didn't even know this was an option on the market, I've been around since you had the cube and have enjoyed all your videos showing the progress until now. Keep it up!

Thanks for this review. I’ve been waiting for a monitor I can justify buying

I really like the simplicity of this unit. Especially for the price. I bet this thing becomes very popular.
I’d love to give this a try. Thanks for the great content, friend!
this is good to see! I've been reefing for little over a year without knowing my PH it great to see more competition in the reef aquarium market!
Is there a budget friendly stand alone auto tester too? and with this monitor combined would be very appealing. Thanks for the review and intro!
Definitely enjoyed this video, it’s always nice to see new bang for buck techs!
The plug and play aspect is great! Pretty slick device 👌
Budget friendly quality reefing gear companies are always nice to see and welcome when their products work properly.
Love your videos and your approach to making videos with educational on material and quality of product.
Love your channel! Starting my first reef tank (currently cycling) and i’ve been bingeing your budget series. Keep it up
Your slice of the ocean is looking as good as always! Keep reefing.

Nice to see a budget friendly option available.
Here’s my comment, my roll of the dice, idk what to say but I love your videos and your tanks, specifically the mangrove tank. That inspired me the most and now I have my own 20g that’s only 3 months old. Sticking with softies other than a Duncan I have. Thanks for all you do for the hobby.

Nice review! Im always a freshwater guy but I’m thinking about starting a saltwater tank soon. Keep up the great work.
Looks like a good product that would be useful in my reef tank. Thanks for showing.
Good to see new products for the hobby.
Amazing video line aways. Would love to have this unit on my tank to give me some more piece of mind!
Really cool to see more affordable options coming out!
Glad to see you are back! Missed your videos!
This looks very cool, surprised a unit like this exist and based on your conclusion is accurate.
tank looks like it's progressing nicely, love that derasa clam!
Honestly it seems like a really cool product, all the ones I have seen seem to have been overly complicated and difficult to circumnavigate, but this one feels like even I could figure out. 🤷♂️
Great to see more options for tank monitoring!
Excited to potentially have a more budget friendly monitor in the hobby!
Thanks for this feedback on a product as such. I was planning on buying the Hannah monitor but this one has now been one I will buy instead especially a true reefer like yourself being pleasantly happy with this and for $99 this is a steal. The tank looks amazing by the way.
Thank you the honest review! Always love your content especially since you are not too techy!🤓
Thanks for all you do for the hobby
The Kactoily monitor looks very interesting. Wonder if they would ever add the ability to monitor ph over time. Your tank is looking good!
Currently in the middle of setting up a 40 breeder frag tank. In the middle of 3d printing a overflow box because I'm trying to stay budget friendly. Might look into this after the set up. Thanks for the video. Love the tanks
This is awesome, I been wanting to buy something to monitor my ph but didn't want to spend on a apex system
Really cool to see more affordable options coming to the market that are still reliable tools!
Looks awesome! I like the simplicity of it.
Hey!

Always exciting to see a new vid uploaded! This new device might be a game changer for those that want to measure pH, salinity and temp without spending a lot of money
This looks like a great monitor. It’s a quick an easy way to check multiple important parameters at one time. Love it!
Nice little unit to have. Great video!!
Slowly planning a new tank, this would be awesome to add. What a cool tool
Awesome to see more competition in the aquarium control area. Hopefully this one will be another good one like the hydros controller.
This product looks like something I’d buy, great review!
Seems usable at a great price point. Thanks for sharing the info.
Keep doing what your doing, your knowledge is helpful for me and I’m sure a lot more out there, thank you
Looks great! I’m new to the hobby and I’ve seen your videos for long time. It help me a lot! Thank you.
I've been looking for a more convenient salinity monitor... this might be the one. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for all the best information videos!
Looks like a great tool to have for the price range as well, great video as always!
Cool product with a nice price. Thanks for helping us become Appropriate Reefers
Love it! More people need to advance to monitoring. This seems like a good start!
Great video, as always. Cool idea doing giveaway with product you're unboxing.
Nice, looks interesting. Thank you for the review.
Awesome solution for a alternative to manually using a ph meter. Definitely no nonsense
Really like how much you help with all you ups and downs about corals. Being a new reefer your content really helps.
Awesome thank you!!!!
The more options the better, hopefully this keeps everyone competitive.
