    i ordered a ReefKeeper ATO for my ReefKeeper Elite. When it arrived i was reading the instructions and i found out that i need to purchase a module for an ATO:-/. It really wasnt clear on the sight that the $500 controller wouldnt operate a ATO, as a matter of fact it sounded that it mos def would.........
    Anyway i have the option of the SL1, SL2, or SW5. They are $70-$80:eek: so i was just wondering which one to purchase? If anyone has any recommendations as to which one. I was leaning towards the SL2?

    Mine came with the SL1...and if I had to do it over again, I'd buy the SL2 separately. I like the option for Salinity.

    Oh and just for reference...the "Expansion Module" that is available does not really expand anything, since you have to use a wall receptacle AND one of your PC4 receptacles.

    If yours came with the SL1 why can't you run the ATO?

    I imagine he's talking about the Salinity vs ORP thing at this point?
