![]() Finally, after YEARS of trying to find an upgraded magnet I nearly gave up. Yay for random finds that don't require the CDN-US exchange rate be involved.
![]() Now all I need is a Calcium Reactor, and a few pheasant balls to proclaim my tank completely built! Sent from space riding a T-Rex |

![]() Went to Edmonton this weekend and was thoroughly disappointed. Prices were all 20%+ more for the same products and no stock anywhere. I'm sad, I packed coolers and everything.

![]() Livestock mostly was my goal. However there were some drygoods; T5 lamps, dosing chemicals, reactor media, back up parts/equipment.
Um, I'm actually not all that sure on where in Calgary anymore. I've been roaming between Oceans, Wai's and Pisces to meet my needs lately. I don't get a lot of opportunity to shop anymore, as I either buy in bulk or I'm cash flush when the stores are livestock poor. ![]() Some photos from the tank cam. It really shows the green from non-low iron glass. ![]() ![]() Sent from space riding a T-Rex |

![]() I have a cheap Foscam I got from Amazon. I think I paid either just over or under $100 for it. Does night view and can be remotely controlled. It's set up explicitly to avoid spying on people in the space, it's just for fish peeping. Note the difference in the quality when streamed via the Apex vs the just Foscam app; above via Apex, below Foscam. ![]() Sent from space riding a T-Rex |

![]() Thanks for the info. And wow that is a noticeable difference. I guess if the camera is exporting to something other than it's own native app that it's somehow sending out a lower resolution image?
How do you have the camera mounted? It looks like a fairly low viewing angle? In my case I'd probably have to mount it on the ceiling like a security cam or something. In which case it would be aimed a bit downward. Probably not the best angle for viewing but it would still solve the superficial want of looking at the tank when not at home. And the worst case scenario someone of hacking in to spy would see the back of my head if I was looking at the tank, and well, I kinda see that as being more their problem than mine. ![]()
