Aquarium Lights Controler + Food Feeder + Temperature Monitor + Cayenne

About This Project

Hi Love Aquariums, I Have i 200 L Aquarium inside i wall in my Apartment. I have been looking into automation of my tank for a few months now and I have now invested in my first Raspberry Pi and hooked it up to Cayenne.

The first phase will be to only turn on/off lights on/off, turn on/off the Fish Feeder and monitor the tank temperature via Cayenne.

The second phase is to connect monitor the quality of the water, PH, KH, etc.

What’s Connected

1 Raspberry PI
1 DS18B20
1 Four Relay Board

Triggers & Alerts

Temperature sensor - monitors temperature of the tank, with an alert for high and low extremes.

Scheduling

Food 1 one time week 1 minute food feeder is running

COOL project! The fish tank looks like professional installation, very impressive. Do you have idea which sensors you are going to use for phase 2 of the aquarium? It may help to make a post in Cayenne forum about recommended sensors that work well.

Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for notification

I am very curious on how you go with adding the pH probe. I am planning to do something similar but I cannot get my head around on how to read the values :frowning:
