Does anyone else use a wifi camera to check in on their fish while they are at work?

A "blink" camera. Comes with an app for your phone.

I scored on this one. My mom wasn't using it as her puppy cam anymore, so it became my free Fishcam!

WYZE with the mechanic pan ability. But only when on vacation.

+1. Cheap price. Good quality. Free limited cloud storage. Automatic notices if movement or person is detected. Good privacy policy.

This cam is awesome, low cost and great piece of mind. I use it every day from work.

I love my Wyze cameras, but the only thing I watch is my tanks. I have had the one watching my office tank turn on for no reason, so I am not sure about the secure thing. I always believe with cameras running through someone else’s server, if you don’t won’t something that can’t go public, don’t use the service

Is anyone connecting a wireless camera through there Apex Fusion? I have heard it is a nightmare.

I know that most these come with a free app just curious if anyone has had luck with fusion.

I bought a “ mydlink” camera for $100, I made my license plate a custom and with VA we offer a .com at the end for the term “internet capital”. Come to find out, this camera couldn’t be messed with, I was hoping to set it up by using an IP link and have live video all day from my office desk.

Plus I get a lot of questions on my license plate.

LIVE CAM WILL HOPEFULLY COME SOON!

My cheap camera off eBay didn’t do the trick as it used RTSP which isn’t port forwardable, so my son 3D printed and built me a Raspberry Pi based one which works a treat!

For $20.... you cant beat Wyze cams. Free live streaming, motion detection cloudbased storage for 7 days. 1080p vid with blk&wht night vision.

I own 6 of them.... 3 of them for Home Security.... 3 of them for my hobby (1 on DT, 2 on my fishroom)

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but what did you do for color correction. My camera looks purple with all the uv and blue lights over the tank

Which one do you have? Mine was about $80 and it’s clear.
