Profilux or IKS. I would not bother with the other one. Look in Reef Inmates thread for info on IKS.
i would go for profilux...much more can be done and is constantly being upgraded...profilux 3 is coming soon(color display screen)...and all profilux 2 systems can be upgrade
The product has been very poorly supported in the USA and EU due to the lack of support and functionality.
However if you have checked out the Aquatronica threads on the Reef Central and Ultimatereef webs you will know you have 3 very active South Africans with very creditable experience giving advice to those around the globe. All three of us give this advice freely and have been doing so for a long time.
I am surprised that the maintenance/service industry has not cottoned on to the idea of installing these controllers and using them as a communications tool. The SMS features will send alerts and the Ethernet modules will send emails and provide the ability to connect to the system via the Internet. A very powerful tool.
