This guy is one of the best product reps I’ve come across.

[@aquapuncture]

That last sentence of his is really important and good to know. Thanks for sharing this 👍

[@ConnoratCoralVue]

Very True! You can start with ANY of the Control Devices and spread the HYDROS Collective from there. 🤟

[@FlySavageFPV]

Hydros has really been stepping there game uo the past few years

[@djmikefury1]

Hydros is seriously a game changer….love my Hydros

[@user-yh9oy2vz5z]

Can I ask something , I want to love hydros and get into them but is there really only ph and temp probes , is there a way to get alk calcium or not quite yet , thanks 🙏

[@djmikefury1]

@@user-yh9oy2vz5z Hydros’s solution is directly integrated with Mastertronic which tests ALL parameters unlike Neptune’s trident which tests just 3

[@user-yh9oy2vz5z]

@@djmikefury1 I’ve been looking at the Tronics just a little out of my reach in terms of me affording that line of products

[@djmikefury1]

@@user-yh9oy2vz5z gotcha - price wise, more bang for the buck with Mastertronic over Trident..test over 10 different water parameters vs 3 from trident…plus you can use many off the shelf reagents…don’t need brand specific reagents…works out even cheaper long run…but no one said automation is cheap

@@djmikefury1 i agree, thank you for info mike 🙌

Great quick little video!

[@EDKsurly]

I just got a demo from Connor at RAP NY. I like it a lot.

[@caseyryan105]

HYDROS is winning.

[@harkinsaquatics]

Great system and such a simple interface

[@rmcrom]

This looks cool.

[@jikkermanccini]

Wow, how in the world did I miss this!? I was there for 6 hours and it passed under my nose!

[@reeferexplained8846]

Hydros when is it coming to the UK market

[@freddy-b]

Sadly it isn't available in Europe because it is for me, a nice diy controller .

[@quadlawnmowerman]

What type of relays are used in the unit and how many cycles are they rated for? The drive ports are switching mosfets so they are good for millions of cycles, so a co2 solenoid or dosing pump is not going to wear it out clicking on and off multiples times a minute/hour/day, but most relays will wear out in these situations in a year or 2 which is why it is important to know what was used. I am guessing they did not go to the trouble of using SSR's??

[@pl833]

Awesome

[@FreedomFanatix]

Is the AWS cloud backup optional? Like can you disable that?

[@lcj2046]

My hydro works much better then my. Apex which has failed many times. Plus no more codes. Set it and forgot it. Plus no more expensive ph probes

[@nwyk153]

you have no idea how many times my Cond probe failed on me. Even the WAV pumps died after 1 year of use.

[@burtminshew4812]

So you cannot control or do anything without wifi. So if wifi goes down it only remember and you loose total control and can't change anything. Makes no sense

[@nwyk153]

Hydros is the shit. Bye Apex!

[@brianredban9393]

I'm lost

[@themurph3995]

Turn to Jesus. He saves the lost.

[@bdanz5851]

You are now found, my son.

[@darrensaquaticsworld]

Once again Europe is left in the tall grass....

[@bofadeesenuts]

I like how he says if the internet goes out then it works on wifi, you got no wifi if you have no internet lol

[@Razimuth]

You do not need internet to connect to your wifi devices locally. It's a good distinction because their devices are not cloud dependant.
