Aquarium Computer

Projects General Guidance

Hello Guys,

I would like to create a computer aquarium based on Arduino, which can be controlled using a smartphone. I am a beginner. I want to have the driver:

  • Dosing pumps
  • thermometer
  • Probe ph
  • Lighting control
  • Automatic feeding
  • Heating control
  • Fan control

It's just the beginning. What kind of board you recommend? I want to control it from your smartphone or plate must have the Wi-Fi or ethernet.

Google Arduino aquarium. Here is one hit open aquarium This is a subject that regularly comes up on this forum so a search here might yield more information, too.

I was going to suggest mega, ethernet shield, wifi router and HMI droid.
But that open aquarium project is so well documented my idea seems small.

I know Guys.

But can i use this Open Aquarium - Aquaponics and Fish Tank Monitoring for Arduino with Arduino Mega?

Yes you can. All Uno shields is compatible with the mega.

Some Uno shields may require wiring 50-51-52-53 on Mega to 10-11-12-13 (match the signal names) on the Uno to have SPI transfers work correctly.
Same for I2C, 20-21 on Mega to SDA/SCL.
