Always watching. Fully automatic. No data entry — ever.
Ask Captain Chris anything about your tank — and get answers backed by your actual data, not someone else's guess.
Built by Brett Miller — a reefer who lost corals before building the tool that would have saved them.
No credit card. Start with your controller account — add a ReefMind Collector when you want local, always-on coverage.
"Dude. This will definitely be a winner. The people I service with Apex controllers have no idea what the numbers mean. This changes that."— Mike Schmidt, 20-year aquarium service professional
ReefMind is no longer Apex-only. Choose the edition for your system and get the same promise: raw controller telemetry turned into clear reef decisions, backed by history, trends, and Captain Chris.
For Neptune Apex and Fusion reefers who want more than charts. ReefMind watches probes, dosing, Trident context, outlets, and history — then explains what changed and why it matters.
For Hydros reefers who want ReefMind's AI layer without giving up their ecosystem. Bring Hydros telemetry into the same trend engine, alerts, and plain-English diagnostics.
For Aquarino-connected reefs that need the data cleaned up, remembered, and made useful. ReefMind turns raw device readings into tank-level signals you can actually act on.
Not sure which one fits? Start onboarding and ReefMind will guide you to the right edition.
Fusion shows charts. Forums give opinions. ReefMind gives a diagnosis.
ReefMind reads your controller automatically on day one — Apex, Hydros, or Aquarino. Every pump is mapped, every dose tracked. When something changes, you know immediately. When you're about to run out, you know in advance.
Not a guess. A diagnosis, with receipts. That's a real sentence ReefMind generated using real controller data — actual timestamps, actual pump logs, actual math. The engine traces parameter shifts back to their source.
Coral crash post-mortems are everywhere on Reef2Reef. We read them. We catalogued them. We turned the most common ones into proactive warnings so you never have to learn the hard way. Not after. Before.
Every other reef app asks you to do work. Log your parameters.
Upload your ICP. Enter your dosing manually.
ReefMind does none of that. It connects to your controller edition and learns
everything automatically — parameters, dosing, equipment, history.
You just watch the insights arrive.

ReefMind brings true **Video Intelligence** to your tank. Other apps just show you a camera feed; ReefMind actively *analyzes* images to spot problems before they're visible to the naked eye. Point a camera, set a threshold, go to sleep.
Fullness percentage estimate with every check. Alert threshold you set. Get notified before it overflows into your sump at 2 AM.
Coral changes slowly — too slowly to notice day to day, until you see a skeleton. ReefMind flags color shifts, recession patterns, and bleaching early, offering **proactive video analysis** that other apps lack.
Works with Reolink, Tapo, Kasa, and any RTSP camera · Local processing only · Your images never leave your network
The ReefMind Collector arrives fully configured for your edition. Plug it in, and it discovers local Apex, Hydros, and Aquarino data paths where available. That's it. You're done.
No terminal. No flashing SD cards. No IP addresses to configure. The ReefMind Collector ships as a finished appliance — plug into power, connect to WiFi, and it immediately starts monitoring at 30-second resolution. 24/7. Even when you're sleeping, traveling, or at work. Your tank never has a blind spot.
Pick Apex, Hydros, or Aquarino during onboarding. ReefMind uses the safest available connection for that ecosystem, keeps controller context separated by tank, and starts turning raw readings into plain-English answers.
Apex · Hydros · AquarinoOver the first 24–48 hours, ReefMind builds a baseline for your specific system — your normal pH curve, your dosing rhythm, your typical alk range — so it knows what your tank looks like when it's healthy.
Fully automaticGet alerts when something drifts, ask Captain Chris anything at any time, and check in on your tank from anywhere — knowing something with deep reef knowledge is watching it 24/7.
First insight in < 5 minReefMind is the AI brain your reef has been waiting for.
Captain Chris isn't giving you generic forum advice — he's reading your live controller data, your ICP results, your coral photos, and your dosing history before he answers.
Ask a question. Get an answer that actually fits your tank.
ReefMind cross-references your controller parameters, dosing logs, and ICP results to surface hidden connections — like the PO₄ spike that preceded your last dinoflagellate outbreak. When something goes wrong in your tank, you'll know why, not just that it happened.
Upload camera snapshots and ReefMind's AI tracks tissue color, polyp extension, and growth over time — building a visual health record for your tank. You'll spot early warning signs of stress weeks before a coral visibly crashes.
ReefMind ingests your lab results and plots them alongside your Apex data so you can see how trace elements actually move over time. Spot creeping iodine depletion, strontium drift, or silicate buildup before it stresses your system.
Captain Chris draws on a curated library of reef chemistry research, established dosing protocols, and real-world tank case studies when answering your questions. You're not getting Reddit opinions — you're getting referenced knowledge applied to your specific situation.

These aren't hypotheticals. They're the silent killers that have wiped out tanks worth thousands of dollars.
ReefMind turns controller data, manual tests, photos, dosing history, and trusted reef knowledge into clear next steps. Pick the level of monitoring and automation your reef needs without decoding a throwaway starter tier.

Pro is about two things Dalton can see immediately: cameras on the reef and two years of intelligence behind every recommendation. Everything in Plus is included; Pro adds visual context and long-term memory so ReefMind can explain what changed, not just show the latest reading.
Camera and AI image workflows watch corals, fish, sump, skimmer, and equipment changes between water tests. ReefMind can surface Video Intelligence details and visual changes you would otherwise miss.
Two-year history across up to 5 tanks gives Captain Chris enough memory to spot slow drift, seasonal patterns, and recurring risk instead of treating every reading like a one-off snapshot.
Pro is the visual + long-memory tier. Cameras show what changed; two years of intelligence help ReefMind explain why it matters.
