Rural aquaculture is mostly based on open pond system. People in rural areas depend on aquaculture not only for food but also for livelihood. These are unmanaged fish ponds and deprived of any technological touches. To increase the livelihood, establishment of managed ponds and use of low cost IoT technology for monitoring fishponds is an important issue. By monitoring water parameters like PH, temperature, Turbidity fish growth can be increased. In this paper we have proposed a multiple fish pond design controlled by single center and wire and wireless mode of data collection. The proposed model is simulated using NetSim to generate network performance matrices. To achieve a prolonged battery life, concept of energy harvesting at sensor node level is introduced in the simulation study
