I have no idea if anyone has made or taken 3d photos of their tank so i thought i'd give it a go. You'll need to have a pair of anaglyph glasses to view it (those red and blue kind)

anyways, enjoy!

i thought id give a quick update on the tank. we've finally reached optimal params with nitrates and phosphates staying at a steady 0. we're pretty happy since we dont run a skimmer, so this is big for us.
on a different note we bought a few magnifying glasses (loupes) for fun, and of course started using it to take a look at our tank up close. to take it a step further we put the loupes up to the lens' of our phones and point and shoot to snap some macro shots. heres a look at our results with spending $5 to go macro.

we'd love to get other pics but the loupes have to be really close to their objects to be in focus so no other sps macros for now...

in case anyone is curious in the loupes we use, we got em on ebay. this is probably the cheapest way to get macro shots (all you need is a camera with a small lens since the loupe lens is small, simply place the loupe directly over the camera lens and have the object directly in front of the loupe) Hey you can't go wrong with $5

Beautiful...so nicely done.

this one is with some coloured plastic as a filter

Here are some more iridescent shots. These were taken by having just blue Leds on and using different coloured plastics over the camera lens to filter out most of the blue.
