Camera Tracking Woes

Has anyone been able to get the camera to track and follow (or get close to) one of the vision tetras?

I had an idea about having the drive motors try and turn so that the pan servo on the camera returns to zero, but that doesn't seem to be working.

I have something like this

Code:

 
 
if (cam.pan_servo < 127) // Camera is turned left
{
	 pwm01 = 70; // Left Drive Motor
	 pwm-2 = 200; // Right Drive Motor Forward
}
else

the code continues saying that if it is facing the other way, turn right.

Any ideas?
