HYDROS Control X10
The ultimate HYDROS system controller with built in dosing pumps.
The Control X10 is a highly versatile and efficient device that combines the functionalities of a HYDROS Controller and a multi-head dosing pump. It is equipped with four individual dosing pumps that allow for precise dosage of necessary elements. Along with its dosing capabilities, it can also monitor and regulate temperature, and track pH or ORP levels. With additional accessories, this controller can also monitor salinity, water levels, identify leaks, and more.
One Salinity Probe
The Salinity Probe is a special probe port for use with conductivity probes to monitor the salinity of an aquarium's water.
One pH/ORP Port
Probes are only as good as their signal. The Control X10 ensures your readings will be accurate and reliable.
Four Sense Ports
HYDROS devices are utilizing an entirely new way to measure parameters. A Sense Port is a universal input port that can gather data from numerous different types of sensors.
Two Drive Ports
Drive ports provide power (switched 12Vdc) and communicate between devices! They also monitor current and can be notified if a failure occurs.
Eight WiFi Devices
The HYDROS App allows you to create rules and schedules to control up to eight wifi devices, such as the HYDROS fish feeder, power strips, and smart outlet.
Two Command Bus
The Command Bus not only powers the Control, but it also communicates with other HYDROS devices for the ultimate failsafe.

Quick & Easy Setup
Absolutely No Coding!
There is no complicated programming language to learn. If you can operate a smartphone, you can be the operator of an intelligent aquarium—tap, drag, press, or flick to adjust settings using intuitive icons and simple menus. Schedule each component in your aquarium life support system to run at a specific time, frequency, or intensity. You can also use real-time data and easily configure more complex actions.
System Smart Net
All HYDROS devices speak with each other to keep your aquarium thriving!
The HYDROS system forms a web to monitor and control equipment like water level sensors, automatic top-off pumps, and other devices. Unlike other automation systems, the HYDROS Control can eliminate communication problems and maintain control of the aquarium even if a device is removed or shuts down.
Alerts, Alarms, & Notifications
Accidents happen, but with HYDROS, it doesn’t have to be a disaster.
Leaving a cord unplugged or forgetting to turn a device back on can have devastating consequences on your aquarium. With the HYDROS App’s notification alerts, you can protect your investment and turn a possible disaster into nothing more than a simple inconvenience.
Initial Care Instructions
Initial Care Instructions
Once your coral arrives, float the sealed bag in your aquarium for 15–20 minutes to equalize temperature. Then, begin a drip acclimation process or slowly add small amounts of tank water to the bag every 5 minutes over 30–45 minutes.
2. Inspect and Dip:
Before placing the coral in your tank, inspect it for pests or hitchhikers. We strongly recommend using a coral dip solution to remove potential parasites or algae. Follow the dip instructions carefully and rinse with clean saltwater before introducing to your display.
3. Placement:
Start the coral in a low to moderate light and flow area to help reduce stress. Over the next week, gradually move it to its ideal lighting and flow conditions based on species needs.
4. Monitor Water Parameters:
Ensure stable water parameters (alkalinity, calcium, magnesium, salinity, etc.) and maintain good tank flow. Watch closely for signs of stress or tissue recession and adjust placement if necessary.
5. Patience Pays Off:
Corals often take a few days to fully open up after shipping. Give them time to adjust—avoid sudden lighting changes or overhandling during this period.
