Aquarium State Display / Hydros Web API

[Gunnar Helliesen]

Fire 10 tablet and run the app

I’d love to do the same, but have you found a way to make the app or web page update continuously? If it’s only going to update for a minute or two I feel there’s no point.

@Carlos can we have an app preference (per device/session) to make the app/page update less frequently (maybe once every minute?), but continue updating indefinitely?

It's been awhile.....still on the roadmap for API?

So this popped up on my Facebook feed - ReefCtrl - ReefCtrl — Smart Reef Tank Assistant | AI-Powered Reef Insights with Hydros Controller support. Ok, how can we tap into this with Home Assistant? I have no interest in paying $5/month for ReefCtrl. Thoughts @Carlos

I just found this - GitHub - Bitf1ip/ha-hydros: Home assistant custom integration for Coralvue Hydros Aquarium controllers. - gonna give it a shot.

Some quick testing with the integration. Not too bad and has quick response.

Glad you like it

This is great! I downloaded the ReefCtrl to play with it, not sure which Home Assistant you are using, I am Mac based.... I see The Reefmat is included as well which is awesome getting the Redsea equipment added as well. Still looking for a way to display readings every min on an iPad or display to add to the aquarium aesthetics.
