Today The DIY Aquarium is pleased to announce the start of the Arduino Project. This a new feature to help you automate your aquarium(s) through the use of an Arduino. We will use this low-cost microcontroller to build equipment. It will check vital signs in your aquarium, like Temperature, PH, TDS, and water levels. As well as automate such functions from lights and water top off to controlling wave makers.
Each project will contain a parts list. It will also include a wiring diagram. The code (Sketch) needed to build and run the project is provided.
These projects are produced for the experienced beginner. They are also suitable for the intermediate Arduino user. This is not a class on how to use an Arduino. The Arduino is simple and easy to understand and a DIY’er with a little electronics and programming knowledge should have no trouble building and understanding the projects.
