I've been working on this for a couple of years and finally got it running the way I want it. My tank is located at my business which is a gymnastics and preschool so we have a lot of children looking at the tank. All the fish have names so I've always had pictures of the fish and their names but I really wanted more of an interactive experience for the kids to learn about not only the fish but also the corals and invertebrates. I came up with mounting a antroid tablet running a kiosk program with information about everything in the tank. It's worked really well and I'm really excited how much the kids navigate though the program and learn about everything. I would also love suggestion on other pages to have the kids navigate though. Right now it's fish, corals, inverts, and fun facts. On each of the page I give facts about each. I thought about games or just anything else. Any ideas would be appreciated! Let me know if y'all have any questions about the steps and process.

That is awesome!
 
What a great idea... Well done!

What about a section on caring for the animals in the tank "Tank Husbandry"...Being a good"fish Daddy or Mommy". and or tank parameters. pH , Salinity etc... Could be also educational.. just a thought
