✦ AI Intelligence

Three things nobody else does.

Fusion shows charts. Forums give opinions. ReefMind gives a diagnosis.

🗺️
Dosing Intelligence

Knows every pump. Every product. Every drop.

ReefMind reads your Apex automatically on day one — no setup, no configuration. Every pump is mapped, every dose tracked. When something changes, you know immediately. When you're about to run out, you know in advance.

Live Example
Kalk dropped from 11L to 9.8L on Tuesday.
At this rate, reservoir depletes in 13 days.
  • Auto-detects dosing volume changes
  • Flags suspicious drops — "A4R dropped 90%. Missing a zero?"
  • Reservoir depletion estimates so you never run dry
🕵️‍♂️
Root Cause AI

"Alk dropped because Kalk ran 12% less."

Not a guess. A diagnosis, with receipts. That's a real sentence ReefMind generated using real Apex data — actual timestamps, actual pump logs, actual math. The engine traces parameter shifts back to their source.

Real Diagnosis
Human diagnosis time: 2+ hours.
ReefMind: 5 minutes. Evidence chain included.
  • Connects parameter drops to root causes (not just symptoms)
  • Timestamps every insight against your actual Apex history
  • Shows its work — not just a verdict, but the evidence chain
💀
Predictive AI

80+ ways reefs die. ReefMind knows all of them.

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.

Warning Triggered
Ca > 480 + pH rising = precipitation risk.
Alk dropping 20:1 with Ca? Not coral growth.
  • Ca/Alk ratio off? Precipitation warning triggered
  • Kalk heavy during pH spike? Alert with dosing recommendation
  • Cross-referenced against 80+ known failure patterns
✦ Fully Automatic

No logging. No uploads.
No manual anything.

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 Apex and learns everything automatically — parameters, dosing, equipment, history. You just watch the insights arrive.

✦ Vision AI

Your cameras.
Your reef.
Your early warning system.

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.

🦐

Skimmer Cup Intelligence

Fullness percentage estimate with every check. Alert threshold you set. Get notified before it overflows into your sump at 2 AM.

🪸

Coral Health & Encrustation Tracking

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.

ReefMind is the AI brain your reef has been waiting for.

✦ Meet Captain Chris — Your Tank's Personal AI
My SPS tips have been pale for two weeks. Alkalinity looks fine at 8.5 dKH. What am I missing?
🪸 Captain Chris
Looking at your tank data for the past 14 days: your alkalinity has been averaging 8.5 dKH, but I'm seeing daily swings between 7.8 and 9.4 — that 1.6 dKH variance is likely the culprit.

SPS tissue bleaching often traces back to swing rate, not the absolute value. Your last ICP also flagged potassium at 355 ppm, which is on the low side and can amplify stress responses in acropora.

I'd recommend tightening your two-part dosing schedule and targeting 380–420 ppm K before ruling out other causes.
Captain Chris · AI Reef Assistant

The only reef AI that knows YOUR tank

Captain Chris isn't giving you generic forum advice — he's reading your live Apex 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.

Vision AI

See your corals growing. Catch decline before it's visible to the naked eye.

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.

Lab Chemistry

Your ICP results, finally connected to everything else.

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.

Knowledge Library

Every major reef study and methodology, always in context.

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.

✦ Tank Crash Prevention

The crashes we prevent.
The corals you keep.

These aren't hypotheticals. They're the silent killers that have wiped out tanks worth thousands of dollars.

🔺 The overnight alkalinity crash — Your two-part ran dry at 2 AM. ReefMind caught the drop at 7.8 dKH and alerted you before your acros STN'd by morning.
🌡️ The heater failure nobody noticed — Temperature crept to 82°F over six hours. ReefMind flagged the abnormal rise pattern before your tank hit the stress threshold.
🧪 The silicate spike from new salt mix — Your ICP came back with 1.8 ppm silicate. ReefMind connected it to your recent water change and flagged the risk of diatom bloom before it started.
📉 The slow alk swing killing your SPS tips — Your average looked fine at 8.4 dKH, but daily swings of 1.8 dKH were bleaching tips for three weeks. ReefMind saw the variance. You didn't.

✦ Common Questions

Everything you want to know.

While many apps offer parameter logging, ReefMind stands out as your tank's AI Guardian. We go beyond simple data tracking to provide:
  • Proactive AI Insights with Captain Chris: Our AI doesn't just generate data snapshots; it actively learns your tank's unique patterns, predicts potential issues, and offers actionable recommendations tailored specifically to your reef's history and parameters. Think of it as having an expert aquarist constantly watching your tank.
  • True 24/7 Monitoring & Dosing Intelligence: With the optional ReefMind Collector, you get continuous, high-resolution monitoring (every 30 seconds!) directly from your Apex LAN. This enables unparalleled Dosing Intelligence that knows every pump, every product, and every drop, detecting subtle changes and preventing catastrophic failures that other apps simply cannot. Even without the Collector, our Fusion integration provides automatic, cloud-based monitoring.
  • Deep, Seamless Apex & Trident Integration: ReefMind offers robust, view-only auto-import from Neptune Apex and Trident, ensuring your data is always current and feeding into advanced diagnostics without manual entry hassles.
  • Comprehensive Reef Health: We track everything from water parameters and dosing to livestock, ICP results, and historical trends, connecting all aspects of your reef for a truly holistic view.
  • Focus on Prevention: Our core mission is to help you catch critical problems like alkalinity crashes or equipment failures before they become catastrophic.
ReefMind is built to be an intelligent partner in your reefing journey, designed to make sense of your data and help you sleep better knowing your tank is protected.
Skimmer Video Intelligence uses ReefMind's Vision AI to continuously analyze camera snapshots of your sump. Instead of you guessing when to empty your skimmer cup, ReefMind proactively helps you maintain your tank by:
  • Continuous Visual Analysis: Our AI constantly analyzes camera snapshots of your sump, \"seeing\" your skimmer just like you would, but with unblinking eyes, 24/7.
  • Predictive Fullness Estimates: ReefMind accurately estimates the fullness percentage of your skimmer cup with every analysis, learning your tank's unique filling rate.
  • Proactive Alerts: You set a customizable threshold (e.g., 85% full). The AI then predicts when your skimmer cup will reach this level and sends you an alert *before* it overflows, preventing messy cleanups and potential water quality issues.
  • Optimized Performance: Beyond overflows, the AI can detect changes in skimmate consistency (e.g., darker, drier vs. lighter, wetter skim), indicating shifts in water parameters or nutrient levels, helping you fine-tune your skimmer for optimal performance.
This moves skimmer maintenance from a reactive chore to a predictive, intelligent process, giving you peace of mind and helping you maintain a healthier reef environment around the clock.
No. ReefMind connects to Neptune Fusion using a read-only access flow — your credentials are never stored on our servers. We only pull the data your Apex is already logging.
Yes. If you have a Neptune Apex connected to Fusion, you can use ReefMind right now with zero additional hardware. The ReefMind Collector unlocks local network access for faster polling, but it's optional — not required to get started.
ReefMind currently supports Neptune Apex controllers connected to Fusion (Apex, Apex EL, Apex Jr., and compatible modules including Trident, DOS, and FMM). Support for additional platforms is in development.
