Looking for SmartThings Aquarium interface ideas.

Any SmartThing users out there find ways to connect their aquariums to the Hub? I have a few ideas I've been kicking around that would I like to try out if I can find the right equipment.

 

 

1. Tempature sensor. This could let me know if my heater has failed in the on or off position. And even kill the power to it. This could also be tied to my A/C unit which I already have on smartthings. Set it so that during the day the A/C lets the house warm up so I'm not using as much power but if my tank starts to rise above a set temp it would turn the A/C back on.

 

2. Moisture senor. Which is actually already available thru smartthings. Let me know if I have a leak or the tank is over flowing. Could even set it kill power to the pump if water is detected. Could place these with my water fresh water storage and saltwater mixing stations as well.

 

3. Presense sensor. Have the lights on my tanks (tanks with no coral or live fuana) come on when I get home and off at set times. You can use your phone as a presense sensor. Set the lights on your tank to come on when you turn in your drive way. Or when you open the garage door.

 

Any other ideas or anyone tried any of this?
