Apex El是一种新的较低成本，较低的特色版本new几年前由Neptune Systems推出的Apex Aquarium控制器。刚刚宣布的Apexel的价格低于其完全露面的兄弟，起价为499美元。
自从newApex实际上是一个带有大量端口和功能的“厨房水槽”控制器，Apex EL并不是通过丢弃一些功能来磨损的情况。我们怀疑太多的礁石制造商会错过4通道可变速度/调光端口或用于测量ORP的BNC连接。
然而电导率measureme的遗漏nt port is unfortunate because, you know, saltwater tank. Salinity is the most important parameter of seawater chemistry after temperature, but we also understand that quality conductivity probes are a good deal more expensive than comparable pH and ORP probes. Of course you can always add back the Salinity port by purchasing a PM2 Salinity Module for $85 and Salinity Probe for $125 but then you’re in pocket-change distance from the full-on Apex at $799.
如果您正在寻找Neptune Systems的更基本和负担得起的控制器，那么经典的Apex Jr.售价为239美元，这是一个不太昂贵的选择。唯一真正的缺点是，您必须使用物理线与以太网联网，因为它没有WiFi。但是，如果你做see yourself upgrading with additional modules and accessories in the future, especially the various pumps that require 1Link, you’ll appreciate the 1Link module which is built into the Energy Bar 832 of the ApexEL.
