Smart Fish Farm Monitoring System
Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject SummaryThis project proposes a Smart fish farm monitoring system. Small-scale farmers running on small ponds could not afford to hire workers to peform daily operations which usually consists of monitoring water levels, temperature and feeding fish. Bigger scale enterprises usually have some kinds of automation for water monitoring and replacement. These entities have to consider employing pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) sensors to ensure the health and growth of fish, sooner or later as their farms grow. In this project, water, temperature, pH and DO levels are measured and integrated with aerating and water supply pumps using Arduino. User could receive information at predetermined intervals on preferred communication or display gadgets as long as they have internet. Since integrating devices are comparatively not expensive; it usually consists of Arduino board, internet and display system, farmer could source these components easily
A sample of two days measurements of temperature, pH and DO levels show that this farm has a high-quality water.Oxygen levels increases in the day as sunshine supports photosynthesis in the pond. With this integration system, farmer need not hire worker at their site, consequently drive down operating costs and improve efficiency
Project ObjectivesIn this project, water, temperature, pH and DO levels are measured and integrated with aerating and water supply pumps using Arduino. User could receive information at predetermined intervals on preferred communication or display gadgets as long as they have internet.
Objectives
- Water Level Monitoring
- Temperature Monitoring
- Water Ph. Monitoring
- Chemical Properties Monitoring (Ph., Dissolved Oxygen, Free Carbon Oxide, Salinity and Ammonia).
The temperature sensor used here comes with stainless-steel-covered tip, made by Digital Temperature Sensor (Dallas) – model DS18B20. It can measure extreme temperatures -55 °C to 125 °C with very good accuracy. A pH meter is a scientific instrument that measures the hydrogen-ion concentration (or pH) in a solution, indicating its acidity or alkalinity.This parameter shows the quantity of hydrogen ions (H+ ) in the water. The pH sensor used here, analog pH Meter Kit SKU: SEN0169, has the capability to measure the entire range of acidity to alkalinity (0-14). It can work continuously in turbid, strongly acid and alkali solution for months. The Atlas Scientific DO sensor used here is founded on dissolved oxygen expressed in mg/L (weight of oxygen over volume of water) or its equivalent, parts per million (ppm). It can measure a wide range of oxygen 0-35 mg/L. Generally, all countries have an average of DO levels ranging between 5.0 and 9.0 in freshwater, and 6.5 and 9.0 for marine, all of which are within the limits of optimum fish production
Benefits of the Projectin the pond because inappropriate maintenance of ponds would result in heavy capital losses. Our smart pond monitoring device ensures optimized profits and less manual efforts. As, it continuously monitors various hydrobiological parameters like DO, pH, Temperature, and Feed etc… it supports the growth of fishes by balancing the parameters. Like…
- Water Level Monitoring
- Temperature Monitoring
- Water Ph. Monitoring
- .Chemical Properties Monitoring (Ph., Dissolved Oxygen, Free Carbon Oxide, Salinity and Ammonia).
Thus, the installation of our smart sensor system will surely enable you the right way of fish farming and assist you to achieve high profitability.

Dashboard:
The web based sensors dashboard provides the user with a center point where they can monitor all the values
Some of the features that this view offer is:
sensor values in analog form
A graph with data for each sensor/actuators.
Configuration of sensors done through C++
Breadboard is the main hub of all the sensors
We configured the sensors in such a way that it gives us the understandable values All the values are then shown in both forms( graphical and analog) in website
