Meet The Smart Saltwater Aquarium Powered By Ez Robot

Ez Robot community I wanted to introduce my latest application of this system. Some members hear already know I keep two salt water aquariums one coral which unfortunately died off and my predator tank. Sea life needs delicate balance maintained in their little ecosystem. Things like light spectrum , temperature, ph balance , current of water , nitrate and ammonia levels and calcium levels. These things take a practiced hand to maintain. I am building a new system and using ez b to monitor salinity, nitrates and ammonia, temp , water current flow and the ph. The ADC ports are useful for these and EZ board can control the current and switching to a backup power supply ( a apc for computers inside the cabinet to keep ezb and pumps powered). Also the ezb can turn on and off night , morning , day , and evening lighting settings. With a custom injection device im designing ezb can provide nutrients , calcium and even medicine if levels are out of wack. I started the build today and I am very excited!

I would how it got like a jello shot like you called it, It look super super bad,never seen water look that bad

Both me and my room mate rebuilt our refugiums. I adjusted the placement of the bubble trap and added several pieces of plexiglass to hold up poly filter media closer to the top. My previous problem was the poly matt pushed agianst the first wall breaking it loose. Now that its higher up it cannot do that but will still give cheap mechanical filtration.

I love watching this thread. Always wanted a SW tank.

Can't wait to see the EZ-B integration into the mix.

SALTWATER tanks are great and fairly easy to take care of,but they are harder then freshwater tanks looking at a idea,might be hard to use EZB to control all my tanks .mostly becacaue i have a lot of them and some are seperate in each room And use a lot of EZB'S might be to hard because its hard to watch and control them since the max is 5 EZB

JOSH my big wall mounted aquarium just came in today ,it is heavy almost 60 lbs and no water added tet,most likely need to findsome to help me install it will post photos of it

Your going to want to do some serious reinforment to your wall. The weight of a 60 gallon will pull a tank clean out of a wall with only 2x4 supporting it. They make special galvanized steel supports that go from the bottom to the floor and top to the ceiling. IM SURE youll figure it out:)

Woops after reading that agian I saw you mean 60 pounds not gallons. Lol mistakes make me laugh somtimes:)

i might go saltwater or freshwater with that tank,bayshore aquaruim that makes and sells them ,has it for both and in video of mine, he using saltwater they make the best wall mounted aquariums,they look like a flat screen tv,some bubble types i am mounting it on 2x4 studs in the wall,it has strong brackets it comes with everything needed pump ,,filters,lights ,syphon tube and more

and when i got it,found out they made a bamboo type one (dam) my living is all in bamboo,black frame will still look good
