Thinking some more about this and taking into account (a) your level of experience based on your comments, (b) a guess that this “aquarium computer” is probably not cheap, and (c) knowing how much back-EMF you can get from a solenoid, my suggestion would be to get an opto-isolated relay module. These are widely available from e.g. eBay etc.
