Online viewing: Do you have a web camera for your aquarium?

[Dave-T]

I’d like one that I could mount to my tank when I’m away, so my house sitter doesn’t feel like I’m spying on him. Anyone know what this one is:

I have a cheap, $20 web cam to watch my anemone incubator basket. It works OK, but I really wish I could find one with a shorter focal distance. The anemones I am checking on are small and I lose a lot of details at 3+ feet.

I bought a Logitech c270 ($20-30) for my 3D printer, and printed this focusing do-dad:

Thanks to Vecko for recreating each part in step so I could rework the focuser so it uses a STANDARD M3 8mm length screw vs the I have no idea screw from the original. I'm including the Fusion 360 file so you too can make adjustments. Basically this makes it so you can easily manually focus you...

It's not amazingly sharp, but for a $20 webcam it isn't half bad.

Other here. I did have but now that I'm retired I just sit and watch anytime I like. I didn't really find myself using it much when I was working. Probable because I was an auto tech working flat rate so there was no money being made if I was playing around on my phone or laptop.

I brand I have always used and found to work really well is tapo by tp link. The cameras are of decent quality and you can also use smart plugs and lights on the app
