Hello,

I had an opportunity to work on an Home assistant integration for Hydros.
It should be considered Beta and I was only able to test it with the devices I own (X4, MINOW, XP8, water level sensor, rope leak sensor, flow sensor).
I will improve it as time allow, there is a button to capture a sample configuration and data, please anonymize and/or select subset prior to sharing this data.

You can help me test it by installing it as such: HACS > 3 dots at the top > Custom repositories:
Repository: GitHub - Bitf1ip/ha-hydros: DIY Home assistant custom integration for Hydros Aquarium controllers
Type: Integration
In the next windows select a specific release 0.1.1

Please read the readme / use a your own risks / this is a DIY effort, I am not affiliated and this is not supported by Coralvue in anyway.

Cheers :)

Manually selecting the release is no longer needed, you can just leave it to the latest.

Holy crap! Well done sir! I gave up on anything like this ever happening (and went down a different rabbit hole of spying on the can bus years ago).
 
Well, I took the integration and built a dashboard that combines Hydros, Red Sea, and Input from HA. I use Conditionals to show certain items like when my Salt Mix sensor is low and time to make salt. I also use a Simple Swipe Card and placed Expander cards within that. Screenshots attached. The integration is very nice. A lot of us have been waiting for something like this.

Every now and then I have to Reload the integration to reconnect.
