The HYDROS Control X4 by CoralVue is a flagship all-in-one aquarium controller and automation hub. A single X4 monitors temperature, pH, ORP, and water level while controlling pumps, timers, level sensors, and more — no extra expensive modules required.

Frequently asked questions
What can one Control X4 monitor at once? Temperature, pH, ORP, and water level, among others — thanks to four Sense Ports and two Probe Ports — all without add-on modules.
Can the X4 run variable-speed pumps? Yes. Its 0–10V I/O sends and receives signals to variable-speed pumps and other devices.
Is the X4 overkill for a small tank? For a basic setup the Control X2 or Control X3 may be plenty. Choose the X4 when you want one controller to do everything on a larger or more advanced system.
Pair it with the Control XP8 outlet bar or the Kraken power manager for a complete build — or start with the Control X4 Starter Pack.
