I am going to be gone for a week coming up and have a spare webcam. I was thinking of setting it up on the tank so I can monitor it. Does anyone know how to have it up and running 24/7?
Thanks

Not sure which webcam you have, but most of them that I have seen come with some method to view them over the web. I have two D-Link cameras and they allow that almost automatically. It was very easy to set up and is simple to access.
As far as not being distracted on vacation, I look at it the other way around. I have a RKE controller and if it sends me a message telling me that something is wrong, being able to look at my system can be a real help in figuring out what to do. I travel a lot for work and the camera has helped me guide my wife to fixing what needs attention. It is also nice just to be able to look at my tank while I am gone.
