Newbie question. WS2812 - DS1307 - Aquarium Day/Night Light

Projects Programming

Hi, and thanks for taking time to click on my question.

My daughter has a small tropical aquarium, but the built in lights have stopped working, so I thought I would be creative, and make something.

I've been dabbling with WS2812 led's for some time now, and thought I could utilise some of the ones I have spare to make a cool day/night light for the tank.

So, my question is more of an "is it possible...?" Can I use a string of WS2812B led's, an arduino and a DS1307 RTC to make an automatic light that fades up at a certain time to all white during the day, and then fades down to blue in the evening (to simulate moon light)?

My knowledge of the IDE is pretty much limited to FAST LED and NeoPixel, so be gentle with me :slight_smile:

Thanks

I don't see why not.
