Just a crazy question. Does the most advanced aquarium hood exist? For example the one with monitor and computer to operate lighting, PH controller, heater, test water, auto feeding and dosing fert, filtration, speakers to provide instructions, extendable to just fit any tank size etc. All in one completed set.

I've never seen anything like that, but the AI LED hoods and Solaris hoods allow you to control them from your computer.

Most setups I've seen use the monitors mounted in a separate location, i.e. a remote sump or something. The Neptune Aquacontrollers will do some of what you want, which could be mounted in a canopy with the equipment in the cabinet or something, but even with that, you have to put the system together yourself based on your needs. When you get into that level of detailed monitoring, everyone wants different information so I don't think there's a company that puts together a set kit.

Sorry to ask a nonsense question. It is just an imagination to get to know something.

I have seen pics somewhere that show a touchscreen control that are used in home automation installed in a hood.

most things are still manual. there is a few tests and many bad auto feeders with a few good ones.
