## 🚀 Project Overview

The **Smart Aquarium Controller** ensures a healthy aquatic environment by automating:

- 🌡 Temperature monitoring  

- 💧 Water level detection  

- ☀️ Automatic light control  

- 📊 Cloud-based data visualization  

Built with **Arduino Nano + ESP8266 Wi-Fi**, this system is **modular, low-cost, and scalable** — perfect for both home and research aquariums.

---

## ⚙️ Key Features

- ✅ **DS18B20 Waterproof Sensor** → precise temperature readings  

- ✅ **Dual Float Switches** → LOW / MED / HIGH water level detection  

- ✅ **LDR Sensor + Relay** → intelligent LED light control  

- ✅ **16×2 LCD** → live system feedback  

- ✅ **ESP8266 IoT Module** → pushes data to ThingSpeak Cloud  

- ✅ **ThingSpeak Dashboard** → graphs, gauges & remote monitoring
