BigDave,
We are distant neighbors. I am curious how your project is going. I currently run an arduino to control my entire light system on my 180. looking to add a Pi for the WebUi.
would you be willing to share your knowledge to a Fellow DFWer?

The entire Pi app is written in python using Kivy for the gui. Every 5 minutes I upload current stats to my web server.
In the event the app crashes or the Pi locks up, the Arduino will continue running on it's own.
I have two pH probes, a temp probe, 5 float switches and 10 outputs (2 lights, 4 pumps, heater, chiller, co2, and ocean's motions (wavemaker)).
current development state.
