	Subject:	An Idea That Im Working On..

	Im toying with the idea of a totally automated aquarium system
with computer controlled CO2, Lighting, Water quality and Temperature.
This would be accomplished with the use of a controller similar to those
used in the HVAC industry for the automatic control of indoor air
quality. Has anybody ever attempted this type of thing before,(the
control cards tend to be expensive), and does anybody have any
experience with the sensors that are available for the various organic
compounds that we are concerned with?(these sensors would control a r/o
unit).
		any input??

		NOAA has a web site
(http://www2.nwfsc.noaa.gov/recirc/trial.html#update) it maybe useful.
It is how they automated their recirculation system for salmon research
