Hmmmm
Have any members come close to a setup like this? remote webcam , real time temps, etc. on a website, etc.

I'm about to setup a remote controlled webcam so I can 'see' if things are going well... would like to take it up a notch...

I like the comments under the article.

check out the new profilux II controller it's got a wifi card, it might be the next gadget I get for my tank, plus the web cams

The guy that designed that came in 3rd. 2nd place was a wifi alarm clock.. Must be one helluva alarm clock!!!

New forums needed " lazy reefers .com".. You could probably hire some one that's really down and out to watch you tank for less...:lol: And if you really want to go big time give them a cell phone... Just kidding don't get offended..

So do we all get $2000 for having ACIII's ?? Pierce should get $8000 alone !!!

The lighthouse controller is also able to do similar stuff as this one is you just have to set up a separate web cam.

Remote feeding?

Hey Cali,
You mentioned you can do almost all of the remote stuff on 2 of your 3 tanks...
What do you use to do a remote feeding? I have a battery operated fish feeder... not great, but works...

I like the controller you posted Jonathan...

I don't do auto feed, I feed mostly frozen food. There is no ready made device to connect to the aquacontroller, but I have seen people take a part a ehiem autofeeder and using the aquacontroller to trigger the feed motor.
