You owe this to yourself and your tank.
I was recently looking for some of those pesty snails as one of my zoo colonies looked aggravated. Even up close I was having trouble getting a good look. I went and got a pair of those 1.75 magnifying reading glasses that you can get just about anywhere and WOW is all I can say. Imaging watching your entire tank as if it were a macro photo. Thats what you will get. Things take on a totally different look and things you didnt know even existed will show . Do it and I promiss you wont regret it. I keep the glasses right by the tank now, I bet you will too.

I may try that myself. I haven't had a magnifying glass in years anyway. How about a monocle?

I have a 7X loupe that I use for coins. Makes a spirorbid worm look pretty cool, and a munnid isopod looks like a real bruiser.

When I would tell my GF about stuff on the LR and other critters running around she would kinda smile and nod. Then one day she took a look with a magnifying glass. Her glasses didn't work well looking through the tank's glass, but once she got a real look at things, she was all about LR watching.

absolutely... a magnifying glass should be on every reefers equipment list... amazing things to see that we can not see with the naked eye...

Some friends of mine use jeweler glasses that your wear kinda like goggles and work great. You look a little funny but the fish don't mind.

When I set up my first tank in 2004, a 29 gallon,that is one of the first things I began doing.. while my rock cycled...I searched with my magnifying glass always looking for life... it is unbelievable all the things you can see... and 4 years later, I have a 180 gallon and I am still using my magnifying glass
