Automated Nitrate and Phosphate Testing is Here!

  • Reagents Store Neatly Inside the Trident
  • Test Nitrate and Phosphate Automatically Once Per Day
  • Compatible with A3 Apex (Apex Pro, Apex, Apex Jr.) or A2 Apex (Apex, Apex EL)
  • Designed and Assembled in the USA

 

Imagine a world where manual nitrate and phosphate tests are no longer apart of your aquarium maintenance routine. Now you don't have to imagine! The Trident NP is the latest innovation from Neptune Systems, designed to automate Nitrate and Phosphate testing with precision and ease. Building on the trusted reputation of the original Trident, the Trident NP offers high-frequency testing to ensure optimal water quality in your aquarium. With seamless integration into the A2 and A3 Series Apex Controllers, the Trident NP brings consistent, automated measurement of nitrate and phosphate levels inside your aquarium so that you can make better decisions or even automate actions to maintain stability in your system.

 

With Every Trident:

Easy Plug and Play Setup - From the box to testing in no time! Just follow the step-by-step videos in the setup task.

Easy to Read Results and Graphs - The peace of mind of having your recent tank parameters, right there in your pocket, from anywhere in the world.

High/Low Alerts When Tank is Out of Range - Your Apex will alert you on your mobile device when test results fall out of the range you specify.

 

Take Your Aquarium Success to the Next Level

When you start receiving regular data from the Trident you will be amazed at the things you can see happening. This increased understanding ultimately helps you maintain a better, more successful reef.

 

Monitor, Protect, and Control with Apex Fusion

Apex Fusion is a free, cloud-based service that, when connected to your Apex, gives you a command center for your aquarium(s) from anywhere in the world. It works on nearly every device platform – computer, tablet, or smart phone.
