Vertex is pleased to announce, after years of refinement, it it finally here, The Vertex Cerebra Aquarium Controller. Running through an Android based processing system the need to have tribal knowledge of coding is no longer needed. The Android operating system allows the Cerebra Controller to run smooth, and quick. We have yet to get our hands on a controller that is this feature packed, that is this easy to program.
Monitor and control your aquarium with the much awaited Vertex Cerebra Aquarium Controller. From dosing, pump control, lighting and much more, you can do everything with the Android based aquarium controller. The Cerebra is expandable and will have other modules that will allow you to control leaks, monitor necessary tank parameters, and even more outlets.

Smart-Temp Probe
Vertex is revolutionizing the probe industry, with their Smart-Temp probe. The probe is built from the highest quality parts that Vertex could source allowing the probe to last a long time giving stable and reliable readings. The probe had built-in LED status indicators that will let you know when the temperature is normal or out of range.
Blinking Red - Out of Range
Solid Green - Within Range
Android OS
Vertex undertook the challenge of making an aquarium controller on an open source platform. The Android based operating system lets you fully customize your controller for your needs without having to learn any coding, or proprietary software. If you have a smart phone today, you will know how to use the Cerebra. You can now have an internet browser, streaming videos, and instructional manuals right on your controller. If you need to convert alkalinity readings from PPM to DKH, you can book mark your favorite conversion chart, or if you are looking for a new skimmer, you can watch and read product reviews directly from the Cerebra. With an open source controller it is just a matter of time before many useful apps come to the market, making reef keeping fun and easy.
