 Topic: Underwater Web Cam
Posted: October 18 2005 at 10:43am |
|
ok now that I got your attention I want to really geek out and put a webcam on my tank however I don't think I want to go run of the mill with a crapy cam where you can't make heads or tails of anything.. I really would like to mount some sort of underwater apparatus..
any ideas?

How about mounting one (or two) in an acrylic box pointed straight down just below the surface?

That's going to be sweet. If you had a live feed to your tank, I could stare at my computer all day at work, and think of fishies. No wait, I do that now.

You gotta love it! Great idea. I can see it now> WMAS live feeds>view several tanks in motion> I think this could be the cutting edge in reefing.

SWEET! The big fish is dancing in the middle. lol. Do you have music playing with the video? It would be really cool to see your fish dancing like that to some funky tune! lol. My puter speakers don't work, so I'm not sure if there is sound. Anyhow, looks good and can't wait to seem more.

I think thats because it needs native support for windows media player that explorer has.
