Project Overview
Over the past two semesters, the Feederal Reserve team has been working to develop a new variety of fish feeders for single tanks. This idea was brought about by the Iowa State University's Campus Organizations Accounting (COA) office, where they have a passion for helping student groups get funding for events and taking care of their gilly friends. For this project we have been tasked with developing our own fish feeder with a functional web-based application that is responsible for monitoring tank conditions, including water pH, temperature of water, the schedule of feeding per device, and the last time each fish was fed.
