I am primarily a freshwater guy and since I lurk around so much reading through equipment posts here, I thought I would share something I made here as well.

I use the TIG (Telegraf, InfluxDB and Grafana) stack to monitor my home lab. I saw someone made a plugin for telegraf for the Apex controller.

Using this, I made a below dashboard for my Apex Jr.:

Since I only have the temperature probe, I only have one graph. But it is trivial to add pH and other graphs if you have other probes.

My dashboard:

As a data hoarder and home lab nerd I have to say I never considered trying to grab data from the Apex and throw into a time stamp db. Nice job. I have to say I may try this out.

Ha, same here! do you hang out on the /r/datahoarder and /r/homelab subreddits, too? I forgot to include the repo details in my OP. Here are the configs and dashboard if you want to use them:

Whew, that’s a heavy duty monitor! Nice :) I use Grafana and have limited experience with elastic search and the like. Nice work!:)
