You’ve thrown a great celebration, given lots of gifts, eaten tons of food, and cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. Now what?! It’s time to take that holiday bonus/gift card/spending money and buy yourself (or your favorite reefer) a new gadget for the New Year! Here is reefs.com’s top three picks:
1. Mastertronic by Focustronic
This extremely high-quality water testing system is the latest addition to Focustronic’s product catalog, and it’s darn near perfect. Mastertronic (MT) will be able to communicate with the company’s other products such as Alkatronic, Dosetronic, Solartronic (patented dynamic lighting fixture), and Powertronic (smart power strip).
Features:
• Measures PO4 / NO3 / Ca / Mg / dKH* / OLI / NH3 / I / Fe / NO3 COMP
• High Precision Stepper and DC Pumps
• State of the art colorimetric photosensor
• Simple to use iOS and Android App (Wifi). Focustronic App (all in one)
• Communicate with Alkatronic/Dosetronic/Solartronic/Powertronic: local wifi via router
• Nitrate (NO3)Accuracy / Precision (+/-) : 0.5 mg/l / 0.1 mg/l
• Phosphate (PO4)Accuracy / Precision (+/-): 0.01 mg/l / 0.005 mg/l
• Magnesium (Mg) Accuracy / Precision (+/-): 20 mg/l / 20 mg/l
• Calcium (Ca) Accuracy / Precision (+/-): 6 mg/l / 6 mg/l
• Alkalinity (dKH) Accuracy / Precision (+/-) 0.1 dKH / 0.05 dKH
• OLI – is our own derived parameter which measure the organic matter in water. Can indicate when users should run or replace carbon
• Ammonia (NH3) Accuracy / Precision (+/-) 0.01 mg/l / 0.01 mg/l
• Iodine (I)* Accuracy / Precision (+/-) 0.01 mg/l / 0.01 mg/l

• Nitrate Compensation*
• Dimension: 31.5 (L) x 22.5 (W) x 35.0 (H) cm
Highlights:
• Ability to auto adjust Ca and Mg dosing levels in Dosetronic as sometimes even balanced dosing will require adjustments. This will be done via ODA.
• MT will pass test data to Solartronic and user can select auto intensity adjustment based on either PO4 or NO3. This will be a unique feature in our product range and not available with any other lighting brands.
• When Powertronic is released, we will include features to trigger on/off or even timer for the sockets. For example, algea reactor light, currently running 12 hours. If nutrient (ie: PO4) gets too low, reduce by 10% to 11 hours).
• For ULNS, dosing PO4 and NO3 can also be regulated via Dosetronic.
• Expect new feature in Dosetronic for daily feeding and could also be adjusted based on data.
• Considering offering an autofeeder for dry fish food. Lower nutrients will auto increase feeding frequency
