SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AQUATIC ORGANISM IMAGING
An example aquatic imaging system comprises a light source, a first platform coupled with a image capture device and a second platform that is parallel to the platform, the image capture device having a first field of view, and, the second platform being coupled to a organism tank, first organism tank having an inner wall, outer wall and a base that defines a well capable of retaining water, the base being parallel to the second platform, the organism tank configured to receive a light beam originating from the light source and configured to project at least a portion of the light beam through the well and in a directional plane that is parallel to the base, the image capture device configured to direct the first field of view from the first platform through the well in the organism tank.
Modular habitat system and method
Modular habitat structure (MHS) which can accommodate one or more live inhabitants is comprised of a rigid pillar which extends linearly away from a base end toward an upper end. A plurality of major system components are disposed at different locations along a length of the rigid pillar. Each of the major system components is comprised of modular segments which individually extend circumferentially around at least a portion of the rigid pillar. The modular configuration of the segments allows user configuration of the MHS by selectively adding or removing one or more segments of each of the major system components.
Lighting System Positioned under Aquarium and Aquarium Having the Same
The present invention discloses a lighting system positioned under an aquarium, which comprises a frame having a same shape and size, or a different shape and lesser size, as a bottom of the aquarium; and a plurality of LED lights positioned inwardly around the perimeter of the frame. The present invention further discloses an aquarium comprising the aquarium lighting system of the invention which is positioned under the aquarium. In the aquarium lighting system and the aquarium provided by the invention, the LED lights illuminate toward the center of the frame and illuminate the bottom of the aquarium, thus providing a better view of the animals in the aquarium and providing unique lighting effects on aquaria decor.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ADJUSTING AQUARIUM WATER TEMPERATURE THROUGH DIRECT HEAT EXCHANGE
A method for adjusting an aquarium water temperature through direct heat exchange by a water temperature adjustment apparatus for an aquarium includes: a first step of allowing a smart sensor unit to measure the temperature of the water; a second step of controlling a heat exchange adjuster that sunk in the water to adjust the temperature of the water based on the temperature of the water measured by the smart sensor unit; and a third step of allowing the heat exchange adjuster to adjust direct heat exchange with the water.
Indoor aquaponics assembly
The present invention relates to an indoor aquaponics assembly which includes a base, an aquarium positioned above and supported by the base, a planter positioned above the aquarium, an aquarium conduit and a planter conduit. The planter is provided with at least two through holes facing towards the aquarium, one being adapted for a water drainage tube to pass through for draining water from the planter to the aquarium, and one being adapted for a tube of a pump to pass through for pumping water from the aquarium to the planter. The present invention aims at reducing the time and efforts required for caring and maintaining the aquarium and the plants.
