Hey Jimmy! Great meeting you at RAP Orlando. Is it possible to reduce the pump of skimmer instead of shutting it down completely? I’d like to be able to dial the pump back and continue to aerate rather than turning off the unit. Thx!
IF you have a DC Controllable skimmer AND it is compatible via either 0-10v or Direct Drive Pump on a WaveEngine, then YES, you can create a "Feeding" Schedule for the skimmer...along with the pumps, lights, etc. However, that would not be possible with a standard AC-powered skimmer that is plugged into an XP8/LAUNCH Outlet. That would have to be a binary On/Off.
The skimmer sensor is one of the most underrated sensors out there. It’s so useful.
The skimmer sensor is very valuable to have especially when you’re away and not able to monitor your tank. Thanks Jimmy..
Thanks for the helpful videos. Looking to get the hydros Launch soon and these videos are going to help me immensely!
Nice video, how did you get phos, nitrate, alk, calcium and magnesium to display on your status screen? Do you have a maven?
You might want to get a two little fishies feeding ring, so the pellets doesn’t go overflow

Love your videos Jimmy. How did you set up the inputs Alk, NO3, PO4, Mg and Ca ?
It's called a Static Input. They are manual inputs but great for logging your testing.
Did you have to adjust your feeding to dispense less food? That’s a lot of food to feed??
Wish I knew what to do when problems arise, instead of “link successful” i almost always get “link time out”
I wanted to buy the WiFi feeder but it’s out of stock on saltwater and i don’t want to order from somewhere else that has it currently😢
Couldn't help but notice, are you running the Maven?
I wish. I saw it at a trade show. I think it is something I'll want once it's released.
