Hey all,
I want to make a simple BlueTooth app that monitors my fish's 5- 5-gallon tank's ph, temperature, NO-2/-3 levels, and switches on/off the heater at the power source (ugh... custom/or preset 15 watt heaters are almost non-existent) based on the temp, and notifies me when any of these are above, or below, the desired level. Anything that comes in direct contact with the aquarium/water will need to be non-toxic and safe (no heavy metals, sharp edges, or coated with a fish-safe rubber). I know I will need
- Sensors
-
- NO-3
-
- NO-2
-
- Thermometer
-
- Ph Tester
- Some sort sort of switch?
Where can I get these?
Will I need an arduino kit?
What if I'm out of range of the BlueTooth-can I still get it to notify me like through wifi?
Is there anything else I will need Bluetooth-wise?
I have the basic coding for the notifier, graphing, and the UI down, but I'm a complete and utter noob to Bluetooth- We'll burn that bridge later...
@Mark_Parente, I know you work with fish, Any suggestions?
I will be using the Bluetooth/Ble Extension, and @Taifun's Notifier extension.
This will be for my veiltail betta fish, and my black racer snail, and MAYBE a female betta and a golden mystery snail. This may be a little over the top for a betta and snails, but I love them that much, and it would be a basis to build on for future bigger community tanks. And it'll save money, and less stress for the fish.
