Leak sensors (PLURAL) paired w/ a drip tray encompassing the stand & underneath any external overflow plumbing with some decent height to it for emergency circumstances. Blowouts or complete stand collapse is the only realistic danger in terms of water damage if implemented properly. Do the same with the mixing station.
I do like having an alarm like this along with my Apex... can't trust a single system for something this important. Also the waking up part is CRITICAL.
I use Geist IT Watchdog...similar...in water-based chemical manufacturing! Other systems cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and these Geist IT Watchdog systems are only a few hundred when paired with the Watchdog POE devices! Can send you an email or text when leak is detected. We have them in all of our server rooms, someone realized that the company also sells a leak detection sensor that can be paired with the unit, we now have them in all of our tank farms. Can also monitor light, humidity, temp... Edit: this style of alarm that Thomas is pitching is garbage, we all know spills don’t happen when we’re home.
If I have a pretty serious case of dinoflagellates and I’m dosing MicroBacter7, should I keep dosing daily even though it goes against what the instructions are? I have also watched your Dinos video.
Yep! Constant, annoying, high pitched, tone that I can hear from literally ANY CORNER OF MY HOUSE! Even if I am in the garage... Similar to a smoke detector.
