Aquawater: an IoT application for aquarium water quality monitoring

The Aquawater mobile application represents a significant advancement in aquarium management by integrating IoT technology to monitor and control water quality through sensors. Traditional aquarium maintenance often involves labourintensive tasks such as manual water sampling and frequent water changes, which are essential for the well-being of aquatic life. Aquawater addresses these challenges by offering a mobile application that tracks key water quality parameters, including pH levels, turbidity, and temperature, delivering real-time data directly to the user. This app not only simplifies the monitoring process but also facilitates maintenance tasks, such as water replacement, through convenient features like button-activated and program-based timers. By automating these processes, Aquawater minimizes the risk of exposure to harmful organisms and ensures a healthier environment for aquarium inhabitants. Developed using the Mobile Application Development Life Cycle (MADLC), the application has been proven effective in both monitoring and maintaining water quality. Detailed analysis demonstrates its ability to enhance user convenience while supporting the optimal conditions for aquatic life. Furthermore, the project highlights the benefits of incorporating sensors and real-time data analysis into the application, ultimately showcasing the potential of IoT solutions in addressing everyday challenges. The Aquawater mobile application not only enhances user experience but also underscores the value of IoT in creating innovative and efficient tools for routine tasks, offering a smarter approach to aquarium care.
