So I know there was a thread on this a couple years ago. Looks like it will finally roll out late this year. Have to say if it works it would be really useful. Not cheap but depending on what you have invested it may well be worth it. I'm confident that I have lost over $500 in livestock over the years due to fluctuation that could have been corrected if I had the information. They have a kickstarter going as well and you can back at $495 and get the monitor for less than it will retail.

I think I am going to need one of these for my big tank . replacement disc are where the real expense is but not having to test the water manually is huge, especially for some of those hard to test nutrients like potassium

Totally agree. A doser failure could nuke a tank. I test alk once a week or two. If my doser suck open the tank is toast. Other things are nice to keep track of including potassium. Hope the discs come down in price.

On a side note if they could take the plastic this thing is made out of and make it into fish tanks that never grow algae that would be awesome
