The third curiosity of my monastic engineering experience.

A dynamic light system for my aquarium. The frame, constructed from 12mm plywood holds two large aluminium heatsinks. Twelve 1 watt LED’s are each independently controlled by Meanwell LDD drivers. A Seeeduino mega and custom PCB generates a simulated sunrise and sunset. A fixed daylight period provides illumination for live aquatic plants.
