Is there an objectively superior firmware to be running on my M30S+'s in an immersion tank?

You can contact their support on telegram https://t.me/whatsminersupport and request the liquid-cooled firmware, you will also need the AirToLiquid tool (Whatminer tools alternative) for immersion-cooled miners, and ya, as Artemis3 mentioned; this will void the miner's warranty as the firmware lacks many protection mechanisms which originally exist on the air cooled firmware.

Same question for the OS

OS for what exactly? your question is not clear.

No need. Stock fw exists for immersion (no fan checks), you just need to ask them for it and forfeit warranty if its still under it.

Block halving is coming.

I've never heard of any custom firmware for m30s+ but I heard Vnish is working on developing a custom firmware for whatsminer units they haven't released it yet because it is still under development.

Other OS you mention above Foreman and Bixbit be careful this is not well-known ASIC firmware/OS here on the forum so there is a risk on using these OS. If you flash your unit with these OS, there is a possibility that the unit may become bricked, or the unit may get stuck with this firmware that can't able to revert back to stock firmware.

If you are fine with the risk of using random firmware then check this one below how he flashed this unit for Immersion cooling.

I have been privy to a good bit of HiveOS, a little bit of Foreman.mn, and I have read a little about bixbit/Braiins,etc....

My question is pretty simple, though I'm sure it's an iceberg of an answer.

Same question for the OS.

I'm leaning towards HiveOS w/ the Hive firmware, but I'm wondering if I will be able to get away with it. It seems we are currently using Foreman.mn OS and firmware to limit the power consumption of the individual units.
