This looks amazing. I'm going to buy a Hydros for my WB Infinitia 275 build. Do you have to strip all of your power chords for your wave pumps and everything else and rewire the drive and force connectors yourself? Do the controllers come with these? I'd love more details on your set-up and everything you have connected through the Hydros. It will be my first use of a controller in over 12 years of reefing.
I think you’re making a great decision. Join the Hydros Facebook group and people can help you plan. I did not strip any of the power cables. I’m using Octopulse pumps and they attach to the Wave Engine pigtail adapters. I have leak detectors, temp sensors, level sensors and I run equipment off the xp8. My lights, algae scrubber, return pump and some other things are hooked to the xp8.
