Digital Aquatics was a pioneer in aquarium automation and monitoring solutions. Founded in 2005, we developed the ReefKeeper line of controllers, designed to simplify aquarium management while providing hobbyists and professionals with precision, reliability, and peace of mind. Our products allowed aquarists to automate critical life-support functions including temperature, pH, ORP, salinity, lighting, dosing, and circulation, with intuitive controls and expandable modules. By making advanced aquarium care accessible and affordable, Digital Aquatics became a trusted partner for saltwater, freshwater, and herpetology enthusiasts worldwide. The company was acquired in 2007 and served customers globally until 2013.
