I built it. Used an old medoc mitsubishi PLC.

I like your work, I'm a sparky with PLC skills. I will only build one if I can automate everything to the point where I only have to do something once a month. Gravel vacuuming is one of the big ones and glass cleaning. Got any ideas how to automate these? The gravel vacuuming is probably the most important one to keep the tank clean. Any ideas on how to automate the gravel cleaning process?? Thanks.
