AquaMind Core
—
AquaMind Core is the register, the stock manager and the time clock — everything a shop needs to sell — from a month. Run it on a PC in your shop or let us host it in AquaMind Cloud, then switch on modules for tanks, lighting, medical, nursery, wholesale and more.
Choose where AquaMind runs and how you want to be billed, then add modules. The total on the right updates as you go, and nothing is committed until checkout.
—
Each module switches on a part of AquaMind. Add or remove any of them whenever you like; billing follows your plan cycle. See every module explained →
Priority phone and email queue, proactive register and device health monitoring, and remote troubleshooting. Every plan already includes email support.
Self-hosted keeps everything on a small PC in your shop. AquaMind Cloud puts it on our servers, with backups, updates and a login from anywhere, and your registers only need a browser. Switch later if your needs change.
| Self-hosted | AquaMind Cloud | |
|---|---|---|
| Who runs the server | You — a mini PC in the shop, set up by the AquaMind installer | We do, on our servers, monitored around the clock |
| Hardware you need | A Store Server Kit or your own Ubuntu PC, plus a screen per register | Any register with a browser — the Cloud POS Kit uses a lighter PC |
| If the internet goes down | Keeps selling — the register talks to the server on your own network | Registers need an internet connection |
| Backups | Kept on your server; add your own off-site copy | Included — nightly, off-site, restored by us |
| Updates | Pushed over the air; you pick the moment | Applied for you in a quiet window |
| Tank monitors & shop-floor sensors | Direct on your network | Through the free AquaMind Bridge app on a shop PC |
| Log in from anywhere | On the shop network, or via your own VPN | Yes — any browser, staff PINs still apply |
| Core price | /month | /month |
Modules, registers and Priority Care cost the same on either deployment. Card processing fees and the card reader are separate on both.
Bundles are just presets — pick one, then add or remove any module in the configurator.
Core plus live tank monitoring, rack lighting and treatments. The everyday setup for an aquarium shop.
The fish-store bundle plus plant nursery, wholesale, receiving, metrics and the AI assistant.
What each part of AquaMind costs on its own, plus the ranges for expansion and implementation work. Final quotes for custom work depend on scope.
Registers, servers and tank monitors, set up and tested before they ship. Already have compatible gear? Check it against the requirements and buy only what is missing.

Every plan includes email support and free updates. Priority Care moves you into the priority phone and email queue, adds proactive monitoring of your registers and connected devices, and lets us fix most problems remotely.
Store groups, coral farms, breeders and specialised facilities may need extra locations, data migration, dedicated hosting, integrations or service-level commitments. We scope that with you.
Choose self-hosted or Cloud, add the modules you use and check out — or put a kit in your bag first and add the software at checkout.
