<p>I am writing a book on how to use an Arduino to monitor and automate an aquaponic or hydroponic system. I would be happy to converse with people on this subject. I would be interested in what your needs are, what solutions you have come up with, and I would also be happy to send preliminary copies of the book to people for comments and suggestions. Anyone interested can reply here, or (better) send email directly to me at Leithauser@aol.com. This my third book about Arduinos. You can search…</p>

<p><a href="https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11194" target="_blank">Sparkfun</a> has a DO kit. That's the one parameter that in my experience can change fast enough to cause problems. For the other parameters you can do manual tests that are more accurate than sensors.</p>

<p>Finally got tired of nitpicking the arduino code, and handed control over to the new system. I get water temp, air temp, relative humidity, flow confirmation from the sump, start records and duration records on the flood and drain.<br/><br/> I still don't have alerts unless I am home (within bluetooth range), but at least I don't have to worry about intense water loss. My new system has an ultrasonic sensor watching the level of water in the fish tank. If the bottom drops out over 4 inches past average, the outgoing pump turns off until the situation is resolved. Soon I will have the house computer sending me texts if this situation arises.<br/><br/>I am about to add the larger grow beds to my bottle system and I figure I will make so many more changes to the system that I might as well just get the beta testing over with.

After retiring from doing electric utility automation and doing aquaponics for the last year. I I interested in the path of making the aquaponics practically work on it's own. With an airlift pump and gravity, it's working on next to no power.<br />
Having a system to remotely monitor the system so I can know what it's state is at any time or document it's operation history would be my goal. Perhaps some control for secondary systems and convienence.<br />
