Show your Home Assistant Aquarium Dashboard

[Gizmoreef]

Hi all,

I'm using Neptune Apex computers but don't really like the interface for my general 'quick glances' and I used the Home Assistant integration to start build myself a dashboard.

I know people do this for all kinds of systems from Neptune to GHL, ...

I'm trying to build a nice looking dashboard with all the metrics and full control but trying to get some inspiration from other people's dashboards.

This is my WIP for a new tank I'm setting up.
Will expand with auto water checker data, salinity, ...

Very interested to see what people are doing here!

Here's mine, viewed on my phone most of the time. Also a fairly new system, or at least a fairly new Apex that I'm starting from scratch with. Pleased with how it's going though!

Not just the Apex data in there but I've got an Aqara temp/hum sensor as well some fans and local weather data too. I've set up the lights so I can go to red lights easily for when I'm unboxing new animals.

How are you getting the On/AOn/Okay info? I don't see that in the Apex integration.

That is a custom HACS card called “Bubble Card”.

You can do very neat things with it!

Ah ha! I have used bubble card but not got it looking as good as that. I'll have a play with it and see what I can do.

I'm amassing a collection of more and more ESPHome powered controllers I'm building. Latest prototype is a controller and monitor for my RO/DI unit. Auto flushing, pressure and flow monitored. I just need to add TDS...

Its not an aquarium dashboard but its aquarium adjacent

That is very interesting! You have a thread somewhere showing off your modules and how you did the auto flush?
