FAQ

The picture is dark, fuzzy, or I can't see anything.

That's probably because my computer is off or it's dark in my room.  If it's too fuzzy, too bad.  This is the best possible picture I can get with my webcam.  If the site become more popular perhaps I can look into a better webcam.

What is that spherical object on top of what looks like mountains?

What you are seeing is a small spaceship landed on a mountain range that is supposed to be Mars.  The Sea Monkeys aquarium I have is a fictional representation of life on Mars.

What am I looking for?

The sea monkeys are hard to see, but they are white "blobs".  At first you may find it hard to tell between nothing and Sea Monkeys, but if you look hard you can see them.  Keep in mind that not every picture will contain a sea monkey because I can't force them to stay in front of the camera all the time.  I'd say that about 30% of the pictures actually contain a sea monkey.  If you want to see a video of the sea monkeys in motion so you can better tell what you are looking for, click on the .avi video under the webcam picture.

Why isn't the picture moving like a video?

That's because it isn't a video.  The picture you see is refreshed every minute by clicking "refresh" in your browser.  It's too expensive to run a live video feed, too hard on my computer, and it's impossible on a free website without relying too much on third party websites.  I'm limited by the current state of technology.
