This project is the implementation of wireless sensor network (WSN) in monitoring the artificial aquatic ecosystem. Water pollution is one of the biggest worldwide crisis that leads to limited fresh water supply. Current methods used for monitoring the aquatic ecosystem are time consuming and not flexible. In this project, a more accurate method for collecting and analysing data from the aquatic ecosystem using a wireless sensor network (WSN). Developing a reliable and low power WSN for data transfer from the artificial aquatic tank to a base station is a critical part of this project. The wireless sensor node that monitors the aquatic ecosystem must be water-proof. The parameter used to analyse the aquatic ecosystem from the aquatic tank was ph. The analysed data will be record and if any potential hazard detected, the system will warn the user.
