What's your go-to webcam for your tank?

[afboundguy]

For everybody who uses a webcam to remotely enjoy your tank what camera/setup do you use? I have a Wyze camera setup to monitor my 3D printers but eventually will upgrade them to Octoprint with better cameras and will have the Wyze camera available but it is an older camera and isn't the best when I put it on the tank.

I use a Reolink camera, pretty cheap with reasonable resolution https://m.reolink.com/us/product/e1-pro/. Plus it is a IP camera unlike wyze so you can do a lot more with the video feed.

I use a ring stick up camera, does the job for me!

I use a Wyze cam 3. It’s not the greatest. But I essentially just use it to make sure power is on

I use a nest outdoor cam that I've had for years, glues an orange lens on the front

I’ve been using a fishing camera I picked up a while back, originally meant for ice fishing, and it actually works great for checking on the tank when I’m not home. It has decent low-light performance and a pretty wide angle, so I can see most of the reef without moving it around. Mounted it above the tank using a bracket and just stream it to my phone.
