Temperature is one of the most fundamental things to track in any aquarium, and a controller can only alert you to a heater failure or overheating light if it actually has a reliable, submersible probe feeding it data. The HYDROS Slim Temperature Sensor is a waterproof IP68 probe that plugs directly into any HYDROS controller.
Why Continuous Temperature Monitoring Matters
A stuck heater or a light pushing water temperature up over a hot afternoon can go unnoticed for hours without active monitoring — by the time it's visually obvious, fish and coral have already been under stress. A dedicated sensor feeding real-time data to your controller catches it immediately.
What the Temperature Sensor Offers
- IP68 waterproof rating for fully submerged, long-term use.
- Slim profile that's easy to position without cluttering the tank.
- Direct integration with any HYDROS controller, feeding real-time data into the app for alerts and logging.
Setup Tips
- Position away from heaters and equipment that could give a localized, inaccurate reading rather than the tank's overall temperature.
- Set alert thresholds in the HYDROS app tight enough to catch real problems without triggering on normal daily fluctuation.
- Check the probe periodically for buildup or debris that could affect reading accuracy.
