Live from G-S-T's fish Tank :p

Ok, today I got bored and decided to make my own underwater webcam.

So I went and bought a webcam and stripped it down, attached a usd extension, wired it all up in a waterproof housing and put it online for yall.

Quite a unique thing to do when you're bored :P
 
I've been checking up on it and half expect a person to jump from behind the tank...

G-S-T are you sitting there now..?
 
funny you say that, i took my brother fishing last week, look what he caught:

Awesome :)

GST what type of bait were you both using? I purposely was targeting Alligator Gars before and heard they are most active at night.
So I went night fishing. Used a 4/0 hook with live minnows. However I was unsuccessful. I river rigged it.

You have inspired me to start a Saltwater aquarium. However I am trying to get over the RO/DI water issue.
Apparently unlike tropical fish aquariums you cannot use tap water and the solution to decolonize it.

I also heard you can buy distilled water. I want to go big with it. Maybe a 500 Gallon to divide my living room and kitchen but
cannot buy gallon jug distilled water lol. So do you use distilled water for yours? I also have the option of artificial live rock.

Anyway thanks for sharing the pictures.

Take care,
Unclemike

Good for you man, go all out. Regarding water. I used distilled water for months, but its actually cheaper to buy a RO/DI filter, it will pay for itself within a couple of months, especially if your going for 500 gallons, 25-50% water changes monthly are going to put a hole in your wallet if your buying all that distilled water. Better to buy a few large containers and run your own RO/DI.

I bought a new fish today. 6 inch Emperor Angelfish, just starting to change into its adult form. Gonna put the webcam on now for you to have a look.
 
i like the clown fish! Reminds me of finding nemo.

I was staring at it for almost 30 minutes and now i want an aquarium of my own.
last time i had one, there were green stuffs at the glass and there wasnt an internet yet for me to search.

anyway good luck!
 
What happened with the cam, did they went to sleep ? :)

What do you think about this cube with 130l?
"Sera marin Biotop Cube 130"

or the Marine cube with 60l.
 
I upgraded my tank to a 500 gallon one and after a week the bottom panel cracked, so its getting a thicker piece fitted and my fish are all spread out in tempory tanks in the spare room.

The new tank will be ready in about 10 days, so I will put the stream back up then.

What kind of fash are you planning on putting in the cube? I prefer tangs and angelfish, so I like longer tanks rather than cubes.
