Multiple Reef Angels

I have a reef angel plus that I have been using for years. Was thinking of buying a second for a tank thats in a different room. Does anyone do this? I have the android app, how would I switch between the tanks?

Any tips on doing this is appreciated!

You can do it. I did for a little while before I merged my second tank into my main tank filtration.

downside is that my android app only works with 1 controller. however, you "could" set one tank as Home and the other as Away.
caveats:

the status will be combined into the app and any specific notifications won't be separate
auto update will only work for one tank
probably more but I can't think of any off hand

I really need to take the time and add in multiple controller capabilities.

Bummer. If I did home and away, the labels would be wrong for the relays too correct? You gotta set up multiple controller capabilities, then I will have no excuse not to get a second!

correct. custom labels would be wrong too. told you that I was probably forgetting some other caveats.

The Uapp should be able to handle multiple controllers. Did you try?

I only have one controller for the moment, so I haven't tried it.
