This Project has been always my dream .To have a fully automated Aquarium System .Here are the features:
Lights on and off times in the Morning and Afternoon
Season / enviroment simulation
PH-Probe
Waterlevel drop warning
Temperature controll
Fan / Wind simulation
Water change user reminder
I have started out building the Aquarium Cooler sytem that turns on a fan afetr a specific temperature has been reached.
Here is the schematic for this projects it has a RS-232 for USART , a BIO Interface (just kidding) , a buzzer, two Relays, Real Time Clock (RTC PCF8583), LCD Display , Temperatur Sensor (DS18B20), Reset Circuit, Microchip ICD connector, MIkroElektronika PICFlash2 ICD connector, MikroElektronika compatible Direct PORT Access for PORTA, PORTB and PORTC . It also comes with it's own power regulator input 6-15VDC
These are some pictures of populated board.
You can see the Real Time Clock RTC part (left )with the PCF8583 IC on it
