Design Specification
The Automated aquarium water changer has the ability to provide the function of discarding dirty water, supplying clean water, and recycling the water with very minimal work required from the consumer.
This is done by monitoring the water conditions inside of the fish tank. The water level sensor will know the timing to put water in when the water evaporates. And the turbidity sensor will detect the cloudiness of the water to ensure when to change the water. With these sensors, the system is able to achieve appropriate ecological environment.
