Mate. What a great video. Informative with great explanations for each step. I stay away from these types of kit because they are often difficult to set up. You’ve made it look like a breeze! Keep up the great vids!!
These instructions were great, thank you . Just installed mine, after 15 years of reefing this is a dream. Amazingly after a number of tests my PH was at 8.2 :) I run my tank outside so no CO2 happening. I’ll be moving it inside soon so be interesting to see the before and after. I had to laugh on the back of the unit it says Profational! Surely someone’s being silly :)
Wow took about 6 tests for mine to get a good reading, interesting mine was set with a washrate of 1, I noticed a low ph reading on one of my tests thinking the chamber might not be getting washed proper. I moved it to 2 for washrate and checked in the manual, turns out 2 is default, no idea how mine was 1 , but it bought my reading of Kh from 7.6 to 8.1 on the first try and confirmed on second test, salifert is giving me 8.4 , however salifert a single drop colour change could easy be 0.3dkh :) out. be interesting to see if anyone also has an out of box washrate of 1.
Yeah washrate of 2 is always good! You can set an adjustment if you need to bridge the gap on that 0.3dkh difference, but I’d just give it another couple days
Timing is awesome... Im looking for a comprehensive controller... Seriously want to evaluate Ghl, but can't seem to find enough reviews to convince me... Thanks for this.. 👍
That’s the way KHG recommend you set it up. Have your normal doser set to handle 90-95% of your alk demand and let the KHG fill the gap. Once the KHG consistently has to keep filling the gap, raise your main doser 👍🏻
I love that this is referred to as a machine, and not a device or gadget. getting one myself soon. support is actually faster and better than what I hear hobbyists are getting from another, bigger brand of auto tester...
Oh. I thought Alex was just the USA sales rep. In chats about purchasing, he was quick to respond. Right now, the price is just under $500USD. very affordable
It’s amazing to watch your tank use KH during the day and almost nothing after the lights go out , I’m seeing zero use at night. I’m seeing .1 to .2 rock solid KH now .
@@ParkersReef actually looking at my times iits at its peak around lights off , I might a couple half hour tests to see it drop off in finer detail. All these years of dosing the same night and day
Morning Sam , with the number of people using the Kh guardian , it would be good to see a maintenance video of the unit , cleaning calibrating etc . What you do and how it’s done .
To be honest, I don’t do that much! Once a month I cross check the results against another tester. If out I’ll calibrate the probe (but it’s never out). Once a year, change out the tubing in each pump and buy a new probe :)
Great video and breakdown on the KHG. I was torn between the KHG and Alkatronic. Currently running the Alkatronic but I do have a new tank I'm setting up soon. 🤔
Hi sam great tutorial as always! I just got my kh guardian pro and quite dissappoint as i thought no need of buying anything extra. When i saw the adaptor i was speechless dang have to spend bit more for the adapter. I have a question. If i have the LAN cable which is long enough to connect the controller with my modem is that sufficient? Or i still need the adapter? Thank you sam 👍🏻
It used to be on their website, doesn’t seem to be anymore. That being said, you can find a few versions free online: www.thingiverse.com/thing:4735450
Ordered one today. freaky as I was watching your old KH Guardian video, was going to hit you up about your long term view. I wonder with that API if I can modify a doser to adjust calcium.
The API has all the information you need, but not sure how you would control any other doser with that information other than making an arduino interface. We have made an interface before using an arduino that tapped into the alk doser motor. It measured the time that the alk motor dosed for then dosed other heads based off a multiplication factor for calcium and magnesium :)
Interesting, you got me thinking about a relay that’s powered off the alk motor, this could kick off a very similar “dosing motor” with a variable voltage you could calibrate that second motor. Or maybe the calcium reactor method on the kamoer pump ? Maybe run two kamoers, to be honest though calcium is pretty forgiving and easy dial in manually. The arduino method is interesting.
They have a calcium reactor module that is configurable via the standard software. An arduino driving some relays is the best option as it allows you to set time delays, optional multipliers etc
I've read articles on DIY reagents for KHG. It would be convenient if not only for cost but more since the OEM can be hard to get sometimes. Also read somewhere that there may be a new security feature in the firmware to detect non-OEM reagents. Have you ever tried making tour own? What's your take?
Great video as always. Just to satisfy my curiosity though (I'm new to all this), this machine doses ALK as required after its measured, or just does the measuring and logging of results? If its the former, it makes the value proposition even stronger for me. As someone manually dosing by hand - and someone who hates the "Read the colour change" test kits, if this one does 2 jobs for the price of one I'm seriously tempted...
@@ParkersReef Something that gets me out of the manual testing, the manual spreadsheet, and the manual dosing - This may well have been an expensive video for me to watch :)
Hi, Where are you buying these from here in Australia? And what are you using for reagent? DIY or the KHG bottles? This is on my list of options to consider purchasing, but reagent is out of stock everywhere except one site (which I am not sure i should trust stock levels). Concerned buying it then not being able to find reagent, is well... going to make this an expensive pretty box. Cheers.
Hi Sam, nice video. I've just purchased a unit. The instructions say use a 500 micron or less filter on the salt water inlet. Just wondering what you use and where you buy them. I believe the check valves provided have a filter in them, but do you use anything at the source? Thanks
Hey Tim, I've never actually used a filter on the salt water intake and I've used multiple KHG's for years now... I notice the other options on the market do come with a little intake filter, but I feel it is not necessary. Just ensure you have the inlet hose in a spot where it wont draw in too much detritus and you'll be fine :)
Hi Jay, I'm afraid there is no set instructions as it depends on your router - its more a networking question than a KHG questions. In essence, this is what you want to do: 1. Log onto your router, find the dynamic dns settings, see which providers are available. 2. Create a free dynamic dns account with one of these providers 3. Enter the dynamic DNS settings into your router 4. Setup port forwarding on your router 5. Done! Reach out if you get stuck at any point
It has its own dosing pump and calculates the dosing amount required from the test result, volume of tank and your desired alk level. All setup in the settings 👍🏻
Sure mate. Grab anything that can act as a WiFi client. I use little to link travel routers. You set it to client mode, connect to its WiFi, enter in the WiFi details you want it to connect to and then once rebooted, connect to your KHG Ethernet and you’re good :)
They both have their pros and cons! If you are not a network geek (as in you don’t know how to login to your router and change settings) get the KH keeper. If you do know your way around a network and want the extra accuracy from optical sensors - get the KHG
Well two items,is your ALK/KH at 7.1 where you want to be or is that because of the newness of the tank?Item two,do you feel secure with Siri?I do not trust most of the home automation.You know the eyes of Big Brother and all. Stay well all of you litle Crustaceans out there. Doc BC
Hey Doc, I chase a DKh of 7.5, I find I get best colouration at that level. I do trust Siri to report on values, I wouldn’t trust it to perform actions though.
Yeah sure, the TP Link takes power via a 5v USB feed. The KHG has a 12v dc output. I simply connected a car 12v - 5v USB adapter up, save me having an additional power supply plugged in at the wall
I think I answered that in the video, but here is my reasons why: 1. Price 2. Accuracy (this uses optical sensors to measure volume, not calibrated stepper motors) 3. Support 4. API
I'm surprised that with a tank this size your not using a calcium reactor instead of dosing. My previous tank and my new build are in the 1500-1600 litre range, and I found dosing to be too expensive and labor intensive. Maybe not so in your location?
Can the KH Guardian control your reactor or will it just monitor your Alk? For instance, I have my Apex set up to turn the CO2 off on my reactor if the Trident measures the Alk as too high.
Hey Sam, just set up my khg and keep getting a dhcp failed message when it turns on. Every other device, both wifi and ethernet is working perfectly, do you have any insight into fixing this? Google is turning up nothing
It’s a discontinued TP Link adapter. If you go to a technology store and explain you want something that will connect a Ethernet device to WiFi they will sort your out.
Continue to dose 1/2/3, just use the KHG to monitor and perhaps just dose a little. As soon as the KHG starts dosing more than a little, adjust your main dosing of 1/2/3 to remain balanced
@@ParkersReef a bit strange with all the options that already have a wifi builtin a stand and measuing cups like apex ghl masternoic khfactory why did you go with this one
So so so many reasons why, let me share with you! 1. This is stand alone. Doesn’t need apex, GHL or anything else to work. 2. This is by far the cheapest 3. This has been around waaaay longer than the competition and the product reliability and accuracy shows 4. Support is second to none 5. I personally believe this to be far more accurate due to the optical sensors being used instead of relying on calibration of stepper motors. 6. WiFi is no issue 7. Stand is a free 3D print 8. Don’t need measuring cups ;)
@@ParkersReef makes sense. I guess a scale is more accessible than a pipette or graduated cylinder anyway. Super neat device and nice video. It's amazing how sophisticated the reef tools are now. We're a far cry away from the early days, before people started using two part, etc lol.
@@ParkersReef their website has the correct spelling so seems like a dumb mistake, lets hope their basic science skills are better than their spelling.
Just so y’all know 1ml is equivalent to a gram of water it’s weird that the people who made this would not know that considering they are chemists and I learned this is highschool chem😂
Not sure why you think the people who made this don’t know that? It’s more for people at home to measure accurately, much easier to measure weight accurately at home than volume ;)
I was about to say the same / ask the same question. I know that a Ml of seawater weighs a little more than a gram - which makes sense based on dissolved solids, but if its pure (i.e. RODI Water), then 1ml = exactly 1 gram. I'm assuming that the instructions say weigh instead of measure since most of us have scales that go right down to the gram - if not higher accuracy - but measuring liquids to the exact ml is considerably harder...
