computerized tank controllers
Can anyone give me a brief synopsis how these controllers that are hooked up to your computer work? and what all can be done with them.
Since I am not at my office evryday, It would be great if I could check on my tank and maybe dose if I have to remotely. Anyone with experience with this? Integrating the lighting also is a curiousity for me. Thanks |

check the aquarium obsessed link in the sponsors section. They sell and aquatronica controller that is capable of http interaction with an add on unit so that you may be able to control it remotely. I have one of their controlers but do not use the ethernet module.
FWIW

I'll give a look. I'm not sure if I'm ready to do all of it right now, but it may definately be down the road. Thanks
