Yes.. keep a pi handy if you are playing with circuits.. keep an sd card backup always..
Same here.. i was just mentioning the same in another thread where reef-pi didnt work as expected (due to temp sensor failure) and the user expected that most folks would prefer the equipment to fail off.. i was like... i always prefer ON during failure.

Cool my brother was a computer science major at UGA and he has a Rasberry pi I can use and he ought be able to help Me program some of it
Woot :-)Crisis has been averted! Picked up the target pi 3b which is a bit of a downgrade from the b+ but it will be fine. Got it picked up as they where announcing Maryland is officially on lockdown so good timing. It took my old SD card no issues, only change was the WiFi ip is different but I expected that.
The Positive out of all of this is The eheim autofeed is wired in and works like a charm. Thanks @robsworld78 your instructions where spot on.

Would it be difficult to add reset button for charts?lets say my ato doses 10; but when I am out of water it d0ses 3600, so this number stays and I cant see 10 s graphs anymore.. if there would be reset it would be great. Now I have to delete it and make another..its same with other graphs..it...
I'll go through it and let you know. It will take some time.So I've been working on a user manual but want it so everyone can contribute easily, what do you think of this @Ranjib and others?
After searching nothing touches Google documents, I have a word document stored on my account, anyone can view or edit the document using a full online editor and you don't even need a Google account. The file has privileges, if you don't have full access and you edit the document like any other and it will send the changes as 'suggestions' to everyone who has full access. When someone with full access views the file online or in desktop Word it will show all suggestions where they were put in the document and with a click of the mouse you can accept or decline it, I'm very impressed with the features.
It's setup so anyone with full privileges can give others full access and has full tracking so all users can go back in time and see who made changes and what changed.
Here's a link, there's a button at top right that will say 'suggesting' click this and you can change views. If you have full access you can suggest or hard edit.
Reef-pi User Manual.docx
Reef-pi User Manual May 25, 2020 – Version 1.0 Table of Contents Table of Contents 2 1. Setup Reef-pi – Configuration 4 2. Setup Reef-pi – Settings 5 Advanced Settings 6 3. Setup Reef-pi – Telemetry 7 Adafruit IO Logging 7 Email Alerts 8 4. Setup Reef-pi – A...docs.google.com
To request full access you need to be logged into a Google account when viewing the file, you'll see a blue "Share" button top right corner, click it and a window will popup. At the bottom right corner there's a link 'Advanced', click this and you can request full access. If you like this idea @Ranjib request access and I'll let you handle the other requests that come through unless I know who they are. The nice thing is everyone can interact without full access.
So this is just a start to the manual, I plan to add a lot more along with a detailed troubleshooting section and things like how to reset password that was just above. When you go through the manual you'll see some fields have no or little info beside them because I don't know what they are so please fill them in. My English ain't no good either so lots of rewording needed too. :)
You don't have to worry about images, I can make them and overtime will reformat the layout, first I want to get everything on paper. We can also have a quick guide, wiring diagrams, etc... and overtime decide what works best.
