This is a project I've had on the back burner for many months
now, but now it's finally ready!
We rigged up a wireless camera and aimed it at the KOI pond here,
directly where my KOI get their daily feedings. To check it out
right now, visit www.koi-cam.com.
Right now, it's just a snapshot that can be updated by hitting
your 'refresh' button on your browser - but soon we'll have it
available as a streaming video feed.
The KOI get regular feedings at the times listed on the website.
check out my new auto-feeder called 'Koi-Cafe' also shows at
www.koi-cam.com. This feeder is run by battery, and also comes
with a solar panel for re-charging the battery! It's not hooked
up yet, but it's still pretty amazing.
The feeder makes sure that my hungry little underwater pigs get
all the food they need to grow large and healthy. Plus, we've
just added some new fish recently, right out of Charles Lewis'
(President of The Tropical Koi Club of South Florida) personal
collection. We'll be having a photo tour of Charles' pond very
soon - he's got some beautiful show koi in his 10,000 gallon
pond.
Charles has also written a couple interesting articles on Water
Quality and how to avoid 'New Pond Syndrome' which you can read
at the KOI FLA website here: www.koifla.com
Or you can access the article direcly here:
