One of my friends used an old medicine bottle, the pics looked a little warped. Lol.

Just order some filters for 99 cents off eBay. I did that for my GoPro clone

Camera+ for the iPhone is a great app for having total manual control of exposure and white balance (along with lots of other settings most people won't use). Usually I'll underexpose about a half stop and then add on their redscale filter and adjust the slider to about 10-15%. It helps pull a lot of the extra blue out and gets you a truer color to what your eyes see without having to use gel filters.

The app costs a couple bucks I believe, but it's the best app out there IMO.

Commenting because of your username. WDE.

Now on topic, I followed the instructions for Snapseed on here and have gotten pretty decent pictures.

I use my polarized sunglasses as a filter. These were taken with an iPhone 7 Plus right before the lights went out for the night (extreme blues). The first is without the filter, second picture is with.

off topic, but being over a year later wondering how's the leather doing surrounded by the gsp?

Every so often I remove the GSP from around (and on) the leather. The leather had been thriving and has almost outgrown the tank. When fully open, the leather comes out of the water.
The main issue I have is the GSP is trying to grow under the leather. This may not be entirely bad though...as big as the leather is growing this may make it easier to remove from the rock and relocate lower in the tank on its own rock.

My mini max carpet anemone decided to crawl across the leather at one point also. Did not know exactly how that was going to work out, but the leather did not seem to mind.

These pictures are from May (This is after an 11 hour move in December also). There is a piece of the leather attached to a separate rock that sits on the bottom of the tank (I outlined it in red). So the leather reaches from the very bottom of the tank to out of the water.
