Real Time View Of My Tank
So my husband and I finally set up our new webcam. I'm trying it out and would love your input. Anyone can check it out and move the camera around as they choose. We are still working out the kinks and right now it's dark here so may not look the best. Plus the lights turn off in an hour or so, but check it out. I'll repost the link in the morning when there is more light. My anemone is just starting to come out of hiding again.

panasonic BL-310A....does it look okay? Has a lot of glare on the sand, but other than that it's okay. Too bad most of my fish are sleeping. Mandarin is coming out and clown is being a dork with my 10% out of it's whole anemone.

Purchased online for $148 (my valentine's day giift). It's $200 at best buy but AsenaShop was $148. Still working out the kinks, so if it doesn't work, check back later.

Very cool, it has a really good refresh rate. 
Yep, get 20 people looking at it I bet it will lag a bit.

Well, I have a cabel modem. If you're wireless it will lag and mostly depends on the kind of internet connection you guys are using (how fast it goes).

I am using Comcast cable i happen to be on my desktop which is wired not wireless. I looked at it on my laptop which has wireless and it was the same speed on the cam.
