This kit lets you build a microcontroller-driven monitor that reads pH, EC, and temperature, then triggers peristaltic pumps via relays to adjust nutrient levels automatically. Whether you're maintaining a reef tank, a planted freshwater aquarium, or a hydroponic garden, the system ensures stable water chemistry around the clock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll assemble a fully functional water quality controller based on an Arduino Mega 2560. An 0.96-inch OLED display shows real-time pH, EC, and temperature values, while a DS3231 RTC timestamps data logged to a microSD card. Two waterproof DS18B20 probes track tank and ambient temperature, a TDS EC meter measures nutrient concentration, and an analog pH module monitors acidity. All sensors are calibrated using the two-point method for laboratory-level accuracy. When readings drift from user-defined setpoints, the 4-channel relay module activates dosing pumps to restore balance-automatically correcting pH up\/down and nutrient concentration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCalibrating pH and EC sensors with buffer solutions using the two-point method\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInterfacing multiple sensors (DS18B20, TDS, pH) with an Arduino Mega and reading their values\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgramming relay logic for timed dosing cycles to maintain target water parameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilding a real-time OLED dashboard and logging sensor data to a microSD card with an RTC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArduino Mega 2560\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTDS EC Meter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnalog pH Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDS18B20 Waterproof\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-ch Relay Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDS3231 RTC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicroSD Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.96in OLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10k?
