online aquarium monitor

[lr85ninety]

just wondering if anyone on here has built an aquarium monitor that can be connected to the internet, looking for a project and this would be useful for me.

seneye? ive been out the loop obviously! just something simple mate few probes to a pcb with an ethernet connection possible connected to a gsm module to phone me if i get an alarm, im struggling to find a website with any info looking for a simple open source set up im really inexperienced with the computer code side thought this might be a good way to learn!

ok ive checked out the seneye its very cool but the slide prices are a bit steep! besides itd look far too profesional for me and take the fun out of a DIY build! (although it might never happen!)

Hi Liam why not look at the Arduino controllers they are a bit of a diy ers job if your so minded you can buy them for around £45 from the bay. Twiggy

I plan on implementing a web based application for my DIY controller in JARDUINO V2, albeit a ways off... http://www.reefcentral.co.uk/showthread.php/26598-44-Gallon-Pentagon-Corner-Tank-LED-Hood-DIY-Build-EXTRAS!-(Sump-amp-Wave-Maker-etc)

I want to be able to control everything, and send updates to the controller over the internet via any compuer and/or my DROID RAZR. I will also want to see what's going on, so a video feed would also be ideal...
