Fishsitter

Fishsitter intend to solve one problem in our lab, the food feeding for fishes in our aquariums, indeed, we always have problems to know exactly if the fishs have eat or not, and what is the last time where they eat ?

Furthermore, I think this projectt can be really usefull to combine it with an aquaponics systems (like aquapionners), I saw that many aquaponics projects, monitor lifecycle of plants but not lifecycle of fishes, so the futur will be to combine them.
