I'm building my own controller and noticed that Reef Angel also used Arduino Mega. I add Kalk reactor to my ATO tonight, and arduino frozed during ATO mode and dumped too much Kalk.

How reliable is the arduino & WiFi shield. Anyone else experienced freeze? Is there a way to put an external reset if arduino becomes unresponsive?

Just enable watchdog or add your own watchdog circuitry.
