Thread: Running Two Tanks off of Reefkeeper Elite...who here does it?

    Default Running Two Tanks off of Reefkeeper Elite...who here does it?

    I am setting up another tank (100 cube) and want to run it off the RKE head unit that is running my corner tank. I know all the typical stuff....just chaining everything together with buss cables and setting up channels, but what about using the "Tank#" feature in the software. I would like to think that I can just drag all the modules into a "Tank#1" subsystem, then drag all the modules for the new tank into a "Tank#2" subsystem. Just looking for some people that have used this feature before and if they found it to be a pain or not. I could just order another RKE head unit, but I am pretty sure I can do it without. If I do this then I should be able to jusr use the NET module I already have on the current tank. New tank will have same stuff as the corner tank (5x PC4, SL1, SL2, etc...). So, go for it or order another head unit? Thanks

    Will the tanks be tied together?? If not, I wouldn't do it..

    Just seems like a PITA if they are not tied together.... For just functioning devices on and off, it shouldn't be too hard but for monitoring your system, I would like to have individual set ups.

    Hey I might have a RKL head unit available soon....
