@JoeG370Z The Collective is off to a great start! Thank you for your trust in us for your aquarium controller, make sure to put our support team, including me to the test at support.coralvue.com if you happen to run into any issue, customer service is the #1 priority at HYDROS.

I wanted to make sure, as I didnt see them in the photo...did you happen to pick up 2x Command Bus Cables and 2x Command Bus Terminators? Those will be needed to form the Collective with the devices. Just checkin.

@bsdubois00 Oh yeah, I went off the deep-end with MultiBoard to organize HYDROS. Check out Underware by Kate on Printables...but DONT GOOGLE THAT lolol. It is under desk wire management for multiboard that works very well for our application.

I was showing that to my wife last night - gotta love the cheeky name!!
I have 2 panels printed, working on the 3rd. Hoping if I get the entire inside covered I can stay away from the top of the cabinet, but we shall see!

Hi Connor, love yalls products so far! Yes I ordered 2 terminators as well as 1 command bus cable so I guess I’ll need to order 1 more command bus cable. I also ordered the pro IV so I’m just waiting for that as well. I love all of the extra precautions yall put in your products. I’d love to stop by the headquarters in Slidell one day. I’m only 45 min away lol

Love everything so far!! Just need to do more wire tucking. Posting this pic up so people can see how I’m setting mine up
Looks good other than having a controller with AC outlets under one with dosing pumps. I would not set anything with AC outlets below something with water and other things running through tubing.

Thanks for the advice. I’m new to this side of the hobby so I’ll make some changes

If you have a 3D Printer check out Multi Board - I'm in the process of cladding the entire inside in multi board so I can get everything mounted clean.

This is the first panel - every wall will have a panel on it.

Awesome! How are you mounting the board?

@bsdubois00 Nicer and stronger than the one I made for my system...looks like I'll be back in TinkerCAD. Would LOVE to see these STLs on Thingiverse!

I wish I could take that much credit - just a few measurements later (actually used the ones on the box) and BAM you have a holder here that works with Multiboard:

It's addictive - make sure you have filament on hand haha. I did mostly 7x7 squares (4 of them made a wall panel for me) and each 7x7 took about 2 hours to print. Just would run the printer all day while working.


It's perfect though - going to get everything it's special spot and can move later if needed.
