Why ReefMind
The reef keeper that never sleeps.
ReefMind.ai watches your controller, test results and cameras around the clock, then tells you in plain language what changed, why it matters and what to check next.
What changes when ReefMind is watching your reef
-
See what you couldn’t see before
Controller readings, tests, dosing and camera photos land on one timeline for your tank. Ask Captain Chris about any of it and get an answer built from your own tank’s numbers.
-
Spend less time on logbooks
Say or type a test result and tap confirm. Upload your ICP spreadsheet instead of retyping it. Controller readings arrive on their own.
-
Catch problems while they’re small
ReefMind flags drifting parameters and readings that stop arriving, and the Weekly Tank Coach gives you one win, one thing to watch and a 2-minute lesson every week.
-
Waste less on dosing and losses
Dosing Intelligence shows what your supplements are actually doing, so you can avoid over-dosing and act before a small swing turns into an expensive loss.
In July alone, ReefMind recorded 629,891 tank readings across 337 reporting tanks and ran 4,930 image analyses. Read the July report
“I built ReefMind after losing corals and wishing I had understood the warning signs sooner.”
