The Internet of Things (IoT) envisions all physical objects connected to the internet and able to communicate with each other. This paper illustrates a methodology to provide a low cost Automated Pisciculture Assistance System for indoor fish production using Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi). Despite being ranked third in the world in terms of inland fish production [1], Bangladesh is presently using the method of Recirculation Aquaculture Systems (RAS), because pollution of pond water is a major factor posing significant hygiene danger to fish population inhabiting pond water. In this research, we developed a complete assistance system which provides information to the user about the conditions of the water through the sensors and operates the device remotely. The key components of this system are a pocket-sized Wi-Fi module, Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) for monitoring, controlling the sensors and alerting the user through SMS, an Android application to visualize the data provided by the module and to operate the device. Our main objective is to build a system that accurately monitors water conditions with minimal costing and easy installation process.
