Abstract— Fishkeeping is a popular fad; almost people from all the age groups like to keep fish in their homes,offices, etc., for decoration purposes or as a hobby. Fishkeeping is itself an industry that comes inagriculture. Fishkeeping is not an easy job; we always need an aquarium or a pond for that.It has always been a headache to take care of the fish and aquariums because, During periodic intervals,water needs to be changed, the fish needs to be fed on time, the temperature, pH level and water level of the aquarium needs to be maintained. The project, “SMART AQUARIUM MONITORING SYSTEM” has been designed by keeping in mind, the problem of those who cannot take care of their aquarium every day. The aquarium will perform all the steps automatically like temperature control, light monitor, feeding, water level monitor and control, lightening control, etc., It will reduce the manual effort required in the maintenance of aquariums by automating the aquarium management process. Also, an automatic food feeding system operated by a servo motor mechanism which used to feed fishes on regular time intervals. To continuouslycheck the aquarium’s status, the Arduino Mega board is chosen as a central board to collect data from sensors, process the data and declare whether the values are safe or exceeded the limit range indicating danger situation. Our project aims to replace manual maintenance of a fish aquarium with an Automated system by using Arduino.
