CoralVue – HYDROS Control X10
Overview
The HYDROS Control X10 is a powerful all-in-one aquarium controller designed to deliver unmatched versatility and precision for reef, freshwater, or pond systems. Featuring four ultra-precise stepper dosing heads, dedicated probe ports, dual Drive Ports, and four expandable Sense Ports, the Control X10 can independently monitor and automate your most critical aquarium parameters — including pH, ORP, temperature, salinity, water level, and more.
Whether used as a standalone brain or integrated into a broader HYDROS Collective, the X10 gives aquarists granular control over dosing, monitoring, and emergency failsafes – all via the intuitive HYDROS App. Built with IP65-rated enclosures, it’s engineered to thrive in the harshest aquatic environments.
