Felix Smart Setup

[Daniel]

Now my Walstad-EcoComplete-Normal aquarium project is up and going I can unbox and setup the Felix. I hope to use the Felix on these 3 aquariums.

It looks like it has 3 main components. A big smart plug, a camera, and a Seneye Freshwater monitor.

Now I am going to watch the George Farmer video @Jessica. referenced and see how to hook all of this up.

It wasn't hard to setup. I put the Felix underneath the dirted tank.

Hooked it up to my WiFi network (2.4 GHz only).

Got out the piece I am really looking forward to, the Freshwater Seneye monitor.

The directions were clear.

Popped in a 30 day slide into the monitor.

And then hooked up the 360 degree camera (720 p).

My video was not great and not horrible and it was much better than George Farmer got in his YouTube video. I think my WiFi is better.

See all those reading at the top of the video, that is what I look forward to exploring more later today.

The video is definitely the weakest link, it stalls frequently. I think I will try it next on the discus tank.

Doh! Forgot about the part where you need to soak the Seneye slide first.

These readings look funky except for temperature.

That was a $10 mistake.

I am soaking a new slide now.

Currently not using it. Camera was meh, Seneye part was good but finicky.
