Since I can't seem to get anything to grow I have been on an equipment kick (since I can control more of that). I wanted to check my PH since that is 1 area I have never checked and since I am in the process of building a calcium reactor I decided that I should hook up my Arduino to a PH probe.
Here it is installed in the equipment cabinet next to the tank:
Here is the new UI that I made to support the pH probe with logic to automatically turn the outlet off if the PH drops below a designated range.
(not shown, the time spent troubleshooting why all my temps were reporting 0 degrees, I had a bad probe that has been in the tank the last year - once I pulled that out everthing started reading again - yay for information)
And then this weekend I finally finished my floating canopy so I put it in place.
Here is the regulator I finished up about a month ago all ready for my CaRx to get finished
