AquOS Puts a Cloud Agent in Charge of a Fish Tank
An autonomous aquarium experiment uses a Raspberry Pi, sensors, and GrokBot to monitor and control a koi-and-pleco ecosystem.
Field notes
AquOS describes a Raspberry Pi aquarium controller that sends sensor telemetry to a cloud agent called GrokBot, which is intended to make decisions about heating, filtration, aeration, lighting, and feeding. The test environment is a compact 2ft × 1.3ft × 1.3ft tank containing two koi and one pleco, selected for their combined bioload and resilience. Public dashboard labels cover nitrogen-cycle analysis, water chemistry trends, and an autonomous action log, though current readings remain blank.
